Invensys Rail has been awarded a 48 million pound contract by Network Rail for the Paisley Corridor project in Scotland, the latest in a series of recent wins for the company in the UK.

The project is a combination of both enhancement and renewal, replacing life-expired signalling equipment at Shields and Paisley with the company’s WESTLOCK signalling technology, as well as providing triple tracking of the line between these two locations. The project also includes the migration of the control area of Paisley Signalling Centre to the West of Scotland Signalling Centre. The project is scheduled to be delivered over 21 months.

Invensys Rail is part of global process automation and systems control provider Invensys plc. It has already undertaken a number of demanding projects in Malaysia, including installations at North Butterworth and the Token Block Working Project. Projects in progress include the Sentul-Batu Caves and Johor Bahru Sentral upgrades.
