The line consisted of 6.2 km of single track consisting of wooden sleepers with K-plate fastenings, with a minimum curve radius of 500 m.
NRIC wanted a supplier to provide an integrated sleeper and fastening system which not only delivered gauge widening, but also allowed the railway operator to automate an efficient installation, maintenance and stressing process.
The assembly also needed to work with NRIC’s preferred method of panel track installation. Following the success of a small trial of 267 sleepers at Gara Bov in 2012, NRIC contracted Pandrol to provide the Pandrol Fastclip FE fastening system on monoblock sleepers.
