DATE: 24 April 2024
BuildForce is delighted to be hosting a unique event with Balfour Beatty VINCI SYSTRA (BBVS JV) on the HS2 Project at Old Oak Common station, London.
BBVS JV is delivering the new HS2 station in Old Oak Common. Balfour Beatty’s expertise in constructing critical major transport terminals across the world will combine with VINCI’s knowledge in constructing high-speed lines and UK rail infrastructure projects, and SYSTRA’s expertise in designing, integrating and project managing the delivery of rail systems, stations and wider transport and infrastructure projects.
This new super-hub is set to be the best connected and largest new railway station in the UK. The station will have fourteen platforms, a mix of six high-speed and eight conventional service platforms, with an 850-meter-long station box. It is expected to be one of the busiest railway stations in the country with high-speed rail services to the Midlands and access to central London and Heathrow via the Elizabeth line. Its construction and operation will also drive the regeneration of the area around it in West London.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a site visit of Old Oak Common, to meet the team and explore the breadth of job opportunities on the project, such as project management, site management, logistics, engineering, design, quantity surveying, health and safety, quality, sustainability, operative roles, etc.
