Traction
We help to keep our communities connected. Our work across the UK’s Tram and LightRail networks plays a critical role in enhancing connectivity for residents. In a time when families are feeling the pinch, it provides cheaper and more convenient methods of travel around urban areas but also reduces the pollution around our cities by reducing traffic on the roads.
Traction & DC With our specialist Traction and DC Traction Power capabilities we work with the UK’s key operators of Tram and Light Rail networks. Through a bespoke service we cover all aspects from design through to hand over of traction power systems. We also provide a range of services and supply systems to support the system operator at every level, including full call out and maintenance and servicing options.
