🎉 We're delighted that more than three million passengers have passed through Birmingham’s new-look University Station in the first year since VolkerFitzpatrick completed construction. 🚉 The busy station, which serves the University of Birmingham and Queen Elizabeth Hospital, opened in January 2024 and has seen more than 50,000 trains stop at the station. Constructed on behalf of the West Midlands Combined Authority, the completion followed a complex three-year construction process whereby the existing station remained open and operational throughout and minimising disruption to commuters was crucial. As well as installing new bridges over both a live railway line and a canal, the new station includes two building pavilions, wider entrances, stairways and exits.

We’re thrilled to announce that the VolkerFitzpatrick Southern Renewals Enterprise (SRE) team has begun essential refurbishment works on the historic Hungerford railway bridge, a vital piece of London’s infrastructure with a rich 161-year history. During the work, on behalf of Network Rail, VolkerFitzpatrick’s engineers will prepare and paint the bridge, test the truss pins - which join together the supports – and replace the pin end caps on the girders. All of the original metalwork will be retained and refurbished. Arron Dolan, VolkerFitzpatrick’s Project Manager, shared: "We are proud to begin the essential refurbishment of such an iconic structure that has served London for over 160 years. By combining careful planning, innovative techniques, and sustainable practices, we aim to deliver this vital project with minimal disruption to passengers and the local community."
