Case study

Using AI to de-risk delivery and build trust with passengers during the Transpennine Route Upgrade project

A joint case study by nPlan and Transpennine Route Upgrade

Just a few of the benefits SCS gets from using nPlan Insights Pro:

The 122km Transpennine railway line operates between Manchester and York, passing through Huddersfield and Leeds. It serves 23 stations and traverses over 29 level crossings, 9.65km of tunnels, and 285 bridges and viaducts.

The Transpennine Route Upgrade (TRU) project will double the number of tracks from two to four across the most congested sections of the line; the entire line will be electrified and installed with new signalling systems. The existing tracks in other sections will also be modernised with the consequence that more eco-friendly trains will be able to travel the route at speeds up to 125mph. Finally, station accessibility will be improved via significant renovations including the construction of new platforms and the improvement of amenities.

With nPlan’s forecasts I sleep better knowing we have done everything we can to clear the bar that we have set, and are setting the standard for other rail projects in the future.
