Force One Ltd

Week 50 on the rail for the Force One Team 🚂 This weekend saw the Force One Rail Division assist with several projects across the UK. The Quad-Fan Fleet was out supporting rail operations with OTP and Remote Nozzles Units all weekend 🌪 The standout works from the weekend was a 26 hour possession, supporting Sonic Rail Services Ltd. and M Group Rail & Aviation on the St John’s Footbridge project. These works included the supply of, 2x RRV's, 3x 5m trailers, 3x 7m trailers and a POS package. Scope of works included the transportation of the 3x bridge sections through 14 sets of points, over a mile down track. The bridge sections totalling 26 tonnes and ranging from 9 to 11 meters in length were safely transported to site. The on track team then created the temporary bridge construction area, where there client and there various other contractors, constructed and installed the footbridge. The M Group Rail & Aviation team were able to hand the track back 2 hours early, even with an initial 3 hour delay in getting the possession! Thank you to all of the Force One team for there hard work in preparing and executing these works over the weekend. Also, thank you to our supply chain for your support with these works 👨🔧 A final thank you to Readypower Group & Sonic Rail Services Ltd. for their continued support!

The new CPA "Safe use of Suction & Vacuum Excavators" safe guidance document is here! 📄 Following Declan Burkes appointment as the chair of the SAVE Group (Suction & Vacuum Excavation) in 2024, the group has been working alongside other suppliers and customers in the UK to revise and release the new safe guidance document for the use of Suction & Vacuum Excavators 🌪 Force One Managing Director & SAVE chair Declan Burke, said: “The original publication – the first of its type – made a huge difference in the way that suction and vacuum excavators were procured and used, and it has stood the test of time. As with all operational practices, we needed to ensure it remained fit-for-purpose. I and the members of the group urge those who own, hire or specify the use of suction and vacuum excavators to read and implement the recommendations and good practices contained within the revised publication.” Ensuring that legislative and legal standards were complied with, within the documentation, it was fantastic to see the group work together towards this new guidance. Some of the revisions include: - The recommendation of fully trained support/second operatives alongside the operation of Suction Excavators. - The recommendation against the use of the rotating nozzle (IKE), as it is a form of aggressive digging. General update to legislative and legal guidelines. - The publication can be downloaded free of charge from the CPA website.
