Streamlining Third-Party Assurance Processes
At HB Tunnelling, we understand that maintaining the construction programme is critical to the delivery of a successful project. However, 3rd party approvals or technical assurance processes for trenchless construction projects can often delay the programme or hold up the completion of a project. Â
Our Design & Engineering team have extensive experience delivering trenchless crossings beneath railways, highways, rivers and critical infrastructure assets. They work with various 3rd party stakeholders and certification bodies, including Network Rail and National Highways. As such, we understand the process requirements in order to gain swift approval of crossing projects from the early stages of construction. From environmental impact assessment to construction methodology, we’ll help you ensure compliance at every stage.
