Switches replacement
Subsidiary
OFFROY

OFFROY, a regional subsidiary of TSO, mobilised with SNCF Réseau, took part in the replacement of track equipment at Nesle station (80) on the Amiens-Laon line as part of the RAVI programme.
This project is part of a comprehensive programme to renew and modernise the railway tracks in the Hauts-de-France region. The aim is to improve the performance of this railway line, which is used by thousands of passengers every year.

The scope of the work includes the replacement of 2 simple turnout track devices, the simplification of a third turnout device, the refurbishment of 2 level crossings, the renewal of 630 m of ballast track, and the replacement of 5 km of rail.

This project notably required a 58-hour blitz operation over the Easter weekend and night work to continue the progress of the site without impacting passenger travel.

This project demonstrates TSO and its subsidiaries’ commitment to modernising the railway network in the Hauts-de-France region, as well as our teams’ ability to meet the needs of our clients throughout France.
