Opportunity overview

The objective of this research is to define a set of standardised tram-train platform arrangements suitable for use in Great Britain. These arrangements will help support safe, accessible, and cost-effective delivery of future tram-train schemes. The project will: •Develop practical platform interface designs that accommodate tram-train vehicle characteristics, accessibility requirements, and operational constraints such as curvature, cant, and clearance for the largest rolling stock likely to pass the infrastructure (typically freight services). •Support consistency across future schemes by providing clear, annotated arrangements that reduce the need for bespoke infrastructure and improve design efficiency in early project stages. •Inform national standards development, by providing evidence-based recommendations for updating existing infrastructure guidance or supporting the case for a dedicated tram-train platform standard. •Engage relevant industry stakeholders to ensure the outputs are feasible, widely applicable, and aligned with safety, operational, and regulatory expectations.
