Notice Title

Track Geometry Gauge Spread Verification

Notice Description

Network Rail is looking to understand if there is recording equipment already available on the market that can be fitted to a Track Recording Vehicle to measure the static and dynamic gauge of track simultaneously, then provide an overall value of how much the gauge has changed under load. The overall spread will provide Network Rail maintenance teams an understanding of component resilience caused by vehicle lateral forces on the track.
