Opportunity overview

This project has two key aims: • Improve the GB rail industry’s understanding and identify appropriate mitigations to the exposure risks associated with the creation of respirable crystalline silica (RCS) and non-crystalline (amorphous) silica for staff when undertaking sander replenishment, maintenance and testing activities in depots, sidings and within passenger trains that are fitted with internal sand fillers. • Provide enhanced knowledge on how the risk of RCS and amorphous silica compares between sand alternatives and GB rail sand • The final outputs should be actionable, providing recommendations that directly inform industry practices to mitigate RCS and amorphous silica risks.
