- Rail
Network Rail manages a portfolio of more than 190,000 earthworks assets, including slopes, embankments, soil cuttings and rock cuttings. Many of these assets are over 150 years old and pose a significant risk to the railway especially after heavy rainfall, making the earth saturated and more prone to movement.
L.B. Foster TEW Engineering was commissioned by Network Rail to undertake a pilot installation of its Insight Earthwork Monitoring system at a site with a history of earth movement known as Little Hagloe, near Chepstow.
