Crossrail – Geographical scope

• Installations work is focussed on those stations making up the ‘Central Section’ i.e.– Paddington– Bond Street– Tottenham Court Road– Canary Wharf– Liverpool Street– Whitechapel– Farringdon– Custom House

7

Crossrail – Installation objectives

• Make changes to existing LU stations in order to support local Crossrail works and...

• Procure and install ticketing and revenue equipment at ‘new builds’ i.e. the Crossrail stations themselves

8

Typical Installation activities

• Design support; Define scope of works with the client and Cubic, carry out site visits, comment on drawings, advise client on project dependencies

• Procurement; Confirm hardware requirement, produce initial cost estimate for budgeting purposes, submit procurement order and track delivery progress.

9

Typical Installation activities

• Installation; make sure that Cubic’s requirements for installing equipment e.g. Data, power, containment and civil works are supplied, co-ordinate testing services (supplied by Service Team) with the end of Cubic’s works on site

• Handover; review test results, advise client on completion of works, collate handover documentation e.g. ‘as-built’ drawings, test certificates.

Work to be undertaken next period

• Receive funding for Design Support at Moorgate (part of works at Liverpool St)

• Receive funding for Design Support at Farringdon

• Hold kick off meeting for next phase of works at Liverpool St (new gateline installation)

• Hold kick off meeting for works at Whitechapel.


Risks and Issues


• Ensuring WAN, gating and ticketing requirements are included in the Electra contract.

• A new contractor could be in place that has different power, data and civils requirements to Cubic’s

• No single LU client co-ordinating these works

• TVMs are based on what Cubic can provide now (not in 6 years). Not clear if TVM numbers per station take FTP’s popularity into account.
