No two jobs are the same. With meticulous planning our rail team has the versatility to adapt to unique situations that deliver efficiency, safety and reliability to our customers.
The Pod-Trak team are engineering specialists within the rail environment. With a strong core of multi-discipline services delivered with in-house capabilities, we can deliver both standalone discipline-specific and turnkey package solutions. Experienced in working on a vast range of Rail infrastructure throughout the UK & Ireland including, main line, tram line and Underground, Pod-Trak can assist with planning through delivery of all projects.
Involved with the project from start to finish
When it comes to many companies reviewing performance in rail work, it can be deemed that issues can stem from where contractors are not involved at all stages of the project. The fact that we are multi-disciplined means that the project can be worked on by the same team – reducing the potential for inefficiencies and essentially providing a cost saving to the job.
Versatile in both construction and maintenance
Our team is experienced in both construction and maintenance of the railways. With that in mind, we’ll always look for a solution which improves lifespan and maintains the railways to the highest standards required.
