1 Infrastructure Projects 1 FHR6 Blockade Works 12th August 2013 Network Rail & Northern Rail Co-ordination Meeting

2 2 Todmorden Curve Aerial View of Todmorden Curve

3 3 Todmorden Curve The project involves: –Reinstatement of approx 300m of new track formation, ballast, sleepers and rail –1nr new turnout from the Dn MVN2 and 1nr new crossover on the MVN2 line between Todmorden viaduct and Todmorden Station –Heavy maintenance of existing turnout and crossover on the FHR6 line –New signalling, telecoms and power equipment on and off the new chord and spacing alterations between Dobroyd and Summit Tunnel (late new scope) –Control modifications to Preston Powered Signal Box –Footbridge at Dobroyd Crossing (by National Footbridge Team)

4 Todmorden Curve Setting Up Site

5 Todmorden Curve Route of New Chord - Now Cleared of Trees

6 6 Todmorden Curve Key Milestones Contract Award (Buckinghams MAFA) Jul-13 Mobilise to site Aug-13 Installation of new S&C Nov-13 (disruptive access wk 31 and 32) Heavy Maintenance (FHR6) Dec-13 (during Holme Tunnel disruptive access) Commission Signals MVN2 Jan-14 (disruptive access wk 41 24hr) Commission and Hand back Chord Feb-14 (disruptive access wk 45 50hr) Current Status Site setup under way Material deliveries over next 8 weeks – engineering train Design underway Survey and GI works in progress

7 7 Holme Tunnel Repair

8 8 Background ELR: FHR6 Gannow Junction to Hall Royd Junction Masonry & brick tunnel Constructed between 1845 and 1849 265 yards (242 metres) long Located near the village of Holme Chapel, Cliviger

9 9 Holme Tunnel Repair Defects Severe distortion of tunnel bore at Todmorden end Distortion of Todmorden portal Brickwork defects along tunnel length Causes Landslide movements Seismic activity and faulting Climate and rainfall Streams and groundwater Mining at Todmorden End Excavations at landslide toe

10 10 Holme Tunnel Repair Remit Reinstate structural integrity to allow return to normal asset management regime Reinstate Standard Gauge Clearance Removal of performance and line closure risk due to continued deterioration Allow removal of 20mph PSR, and passive provision for 75mph line speed Solution Undertake primary and secondary grouting prior to main works Remove and replace signalling and tellecoms cables Remove and replace 600m of Permanent Way Replace existing masonry lining at Todmorden end with new concrete lining and strengthen invert. Reconstruct Todmorden Portal Repairs at Burnley end to brickwork lining Install new 6ft drainage
