WSP Group – engineering consultants

WSP Sweden

Rail engineering

WSP's broad competence within the Railway sector makes us one of the leading actors in this area.

Rail engineering

Our experts in Sweden and UK has a long experience and thanks to our gathered competence we are able to undertake overall assignments of railway projects, from the first modeling to maintenance of finished railway tracks. Our investigations can also contain passenger- and transport analyses, geometry ground analysis, EIA. We carry out construction of bridges and tunnels and our experts on signal- and signal technique contributes with investigations and system documents. WSP has around 250 employees working in projects related to the railway sector. WSP is, expect from the Swedish market, involved in an assignment for the Network Rail in UK. WSP Sweden has a very protracted co-operation with Banverket.

Our key services:

Path/track

Our track engineers are involved in all phases of the planning- and construction process and carries out calculations of track geometry, points, speed, connections, rail lifting and platform design. We have specialists with solid competence and experience from advanced rail geometric construction and rail material technical issues and complex railway projects were multidisciplinary teams are contributing.

Electricity

Electrical engineering for railway constructions contains outlet cables- and the electrical supply system for trains. The high speed of today demands for co-ordination between the track power supply and the train’s electricity. The track power supply is engineered through advanced computer programs. The automatised and computerized signaling and train control of today demands for reliable track power supply.

Signaling

Signaling technique for railways means the security technique, controlling the railway traffic, to be carried out in a secure way. Our assignments comprises evaluations and design of signal constructions, including security checks of relay- and computer based signal boxes, line block constructions, road protection constructions and ATC.

Telecommunication

Telecommunication for railways means telephony systems, radio systems, computer- and cable net for communication for control, indication, and telephony and computer traffic. Our assignments comprise evaluation, construction and contract examinations of installed telesystems.
