NSRU - the black and white of a rail project

Despite the literary connotations of the Permanent Way Institution Convention theme, there are few shades of grey in per way projects, especially on the live rail network. Rather, life on the track is really black and white, right through from inception to operation. For example: - Your project either fits into the available track layout or it doesn’t - The chosen construction methodology and staging is practical or it isn’t - Works are completed without delaying trains or they aren’t - Track possessions are handed back on time or they’re not - The work is commissioned successfully or it isn’t - The client and other stakeholders are happy or they’re not. This paper looks at some of these black and white issues in relation to the North Strathfield Rail Underpass Project.
