Short description of the contract or purchase(s):: Network Rail is looking to procure a system which can be easily setup on a railway infrastructure work site, that will provide a warning should an unexpected train, Road Rail Vehicle (RRV) or wagon movement be made towards or into the site from where the ‘boundary’ is demarcated (i.e. where the trigger unit is placed). A suitable level of advance warning should be given to allow all individuals working on track to move to a safe place, before the vehicle reaches the workers who are within the pathway of the aforementioned vehicle.
The system should be already suitable for use on railway infrastructure or easily modified to suit.
The successful product will be required to go through Network Rail’s product approval process.
