980552769 T1391 - How to enable bulk mail and light goods traffic using existing station infrastructure
Notice Description
This research aims to understand the regulatory, safety and operational requirements that would enable more bulk mail and light goods traffic to be handled using existing station infrastructure. To do this, the work will consider typical requirements for platform/station spaces, boarding and alighting arrangements and management of handling equipment and passengers on platforms. The project will also consider how to ensure efficient loading and unloading to minimise impact on other station operations.
