Contractors are sought to carry out permanent way and platform remodelling works at Manchester Airport station to provide additional platform capacity for the introduction of longer train services. Analysis by the Delivery Steering Group with Northern and TransPennine Express found existing double-stacking arrangements will not be viable and identified the need for platform addition, extension or a new turnback facility as part of the Cross Manchester Capacity and Reliability Improvement Study and Tranche 1 of the Manchester and North West Transformation Programme, aligning with Network Rail, TfGM and TfN objectives. The redevelopment will enable permissive working of two 6x24m (144m) trains in two of the four platforms while retaining existing TOC services under double-stacking conditions. The scope includes track renewals and modifications, plain line track installation, S&C installation and modifications where applicable, ballast excavation, placement and regulation, stressing, welding and rail adjustments, tamping and dynamic track stabilisation, possession planning and delivery support, associated rail plant and labour resources, and testing, handback and assurance documentation.
