Network Rail has named six firms to deliver a £1bn programme of medium-sized projects for control period 7 in its north west and central territory.

The deal forms part of a flight of frameworks to be set up covering the “Backbone of Britain” route.

The framework covers projects from £100,000 to £7m, known as category B+C works, and comes into force this April, running to 2029.

Story bagged both civils and building works across the entire region, with Murphy and Amalgamated Construction also picking up multi-lots and Amey Rail taking all power and signalling projects.
