Track Stabilisation (mini-piling) Lisduff

Iarnrod Eireann-Irish Rail

Iarnród Éireann (IÉ) has a requirement for a civil/structural engineering contractor to carry out piling works along a section of track on the Dublin-Cork line.

This section of track is double line which serves passenger services between Dublin (Heuston Station) and Cork (Kent Station). The traffic along the section has a max speed of 90 mph.
The track bed has a soft peat formation which has resulted in problems with both vertical and horizontal track alignment.
