East Croydon Platform 1 & 2 Island Platform for NR IP South East Region (BAM Nuttall)
The scheme requirement was to overcome PTI issues on both platforms due to a combination of platform curvature, track geometry and rolling stock. The existing platform surface was a combination of brick paving and tarmac. Certain areas of platform were overlaid full width with Mountbridge System TM using frp panels.

Client: NR IP South East Region
Location: London
Station: East Croydon Island Platform
The London end was overlaid with a combination of frp coper and tactile frp panels with the intermediate areas re-surfaced with tarmac and new ACO drainage.
The scheme was designed and installed by using Mountbridge Adjustable Platform System TM, especially designed to overcome PTI issues.
Extensive works were undertaken to overcome interfaces with existing stairs, ramps, lift shafts and platform buildings as the platform height was increased to 150mm. Certain external areas of the platform were installed with underfloor heating to minimise risk of frost/slippery surfaces in winter.
