RECENT PROJECT

Porterbrook Underpass Project

Long Marston Rail Innovation Centre  |  September to December 2025
150,000m³

Earthworks delivered across the wider programme.

4 Weeks

From excavation commencement to completion of the main underpass structure.

6 Weeks

Critical railway handover achieved. The wider programme depended on it.

Design & Build

Underpass, drainage, roads and associated infrastructure delivered by P1.

P1 Construction designed and built a new multi-lane underpass at the Long Marston Rail Innovation Centre, replacing the existing level crossing and creating a key access route for the site’s redevelopment.

The scheme included the excavation of over 100,000m³ of material, installation of a 25m pre-cast concrete structure, road construction, drainage, utilities and associated infrastructure. Completed within an exceptionally demanding timescale, the underpass was opened ahead of a major project milestone, allowing rail, signalling and electrification activities to continue as planned.

CLIENT TESTIMONIAL

Feedback from Porterbrook

As Programme Director for Major Projects at Porterbrook, I have had the pleasure of working closely with Mike and the P1 Construction team throughout the transformation and development of the Long Marston Rail Innovation Centre.

From the beginning of our journey at Long Marston, P1 have consistently demonstrated the qualities you look for in a true delivery partner: commitment, ownership, collaboration and an unwavering determination to achieve the right outcome.

When planning delays created an extremely challenging timeframe for the underpass works, P1 took ownership of the challenge and delivered ahead of the milestone required to support Siemens’ electrification programme.

When we needed the Depot Control Centre delivered within a timeframe many believed could not be achieved, P1 mobilised, committed the resources required and successfully handed over the facility ahead of programme.
