Case Study

Delivering the Core of Central London’s New Railway

The Crossrail C435 contract was a massive £300m undertaking essential to the delivery of the Elizabeth Line. Operating across the high-profile sites of Farringdon, Bond Street, and Tottenham Court Road, Tunnelcraft supported the BAM Ferrovial Kier (BFK) Joint Venture between 2013 and 2016. This project required the delivery of critical underground infrastructure within some of the most congested and geologically sensitive areas of Central London.
