About

Manchester International Airport OLE Phase 3 is seeking a supplier for OLE specialist works to support remodelling of Manchester Airport station platforms so longer train services can be introduced. Analysis by Northern and TransPennine Express showed that current double‑stacking arrangements will not be viable with longer trains, and additional platform capacity is required. The scheme is part of wider Manchester capacity and resilience measures from the Cross Manchester Capacity and Reliability Improvement Study and sits in Tranche 1 of the Manchester and North West Transformation Programme. Remodelling may include platform additions or extensions or a new turnback facility to accommodate longer rolling stock; redeveloped platforms will enable permissive working of two 6x24m (144m) trains in two of the four platforms and allow unaltered retention of all existing train operating company services under double‑stacking conditions. The scope for this package is OLE Specialist Works for Manchester Airport Station remodelling.
