Unipart’s rail infrastructure solutions provide confidence in quality, safety and affordability, enabling project success and whole life value.
By translating complex technical requirements into high-performance rail infrastructure, we enable project success through solutions designed for safety, sustainability, and superior life-cycle value. We guarantee full compliance with industry standards, providing technical certainty and world-class reliability.
These are just a few of the thousands of infrastructure products we supply into the railway.
A complete level crossing solution which is functionally proven and pre-tested offsite to ensure reliable installation and eliminate faults found.
Our Level Crossing in a Box (LXiaB) solution can be manufactured, tested, stored and adapted to suit the specific location, with minimum time and cost implications and then be installed and commissioned over a significantly reduced timescale.
Seamless integration with existing railway infrastructure.
Unipart and Newgate are working in partnership to allow Newgate barriers to be installed on any 24V scheme to offer a significant reduction in operational and maintenance costs. Applicable for life extension or new installations. Newgate’s electromechanical barriers are engineered for extended maintenance cycles, requiring 2 and 5 yearly inspections.
Designed and engineered to protect the environment from contamination caused by spillage and leaks on the rail network.
The TrackPan system from Unipart is considered the best available technology, offering protection from spills by collecting fluids and substances and then transferring them to a proper waste treatment system. TrackPan provides an inexpensive and flexible alternative to traditional steel and concrete applications.
Under track cable management made simple.
Hollow sleepers provide protection against accidental damage to cross track cables and the associated costs of reinstatement, and now offer the most cost effective UTX (under track crossing) solution.
They are generally supplied with fittings in place, which can then be removed to allow existing cabling to be “gathered” into the sleeper. Sleepers are also supplied with the required fastenings. We can also devise bespoke solutions for local requirements.
Cost effective lateral resistance solution.
The Trackwork Lateral Resistance Plates are fitted to sleepers or bearers to enhance lateral resistance to thermal and traffic forces. Typical usage when using Continuously Welded Rail (CWR) is on curves below 400m radius and within shorter switches.
Unipart’s Relocatable Equipment Buildings (REBs) provide a modular, pre-wired solution for the rail industry, offering high-performance housing for critical assets including axle counters and TPWS.
By replacing complex site-based hardwiring with plug-and-play factory assembly, these units significantly reduce trackside labour, lower project costs and enhance safety through a streamlined installation process.
Designed to modernise legacy infrastructure, the range ensures that vital control equipment is deployed faster and more reliably than traditional site-built methods.
