Vextrix Appointed by SEGRO to Oversee Complex Infrastructure and Rail Interface Works
Vextrix was appointed by SEGRO PLC to deliver key roles across this complex programme — including Project Management, Client Sponsor, and NEC Supervisor services. Our work has supported major phases of the scheme, from redevelopment of the mainline railway to the commercial development of adjacent land.
Initially appointed in 2016, our team helped deliver significant upgrades to the Midland Main Line, including a new junction and a four-track rail-over-rail intersection structure. We also contributed to early-stage development of the intermodal terminal and rail-served warehouse complex — critical parts of the wider scheme.
As the client’s representative for Network Rail, we’ve managed the interface with rail stakeholders throughout, acting as Single Point of Contact and guiding delivery through key third-party and Asset Protection processes. That has included developing and managing various agreements with Network Rail, overseeing on-network works, and facilitating weekly stakeholder meetings to keep everything aligned and moving forward.
More recently, we’ve been appointed NEC Supervisor on the scheme — a role focused on ensuring the highest quality of construction and managing compliance with the programme’s complex technical, safety, and assurance requirements.
The Site Visit: Behind the Scenes of SEGRO’s Major Rail and Logistics Development
The visit gave YRP members the chance to:
- Connect with the project team and industry professionals to get a real sense of the scale and complexity involved
- Take a guided tour of the site and see progress firsthand
- Explore how rail and logistics are being brought together in practice
It was a fantastic opportunity to walk the site, share insights into our work to date, and show how we’re helping to keep this major scheme on track.
