The late autumn and winter periods are a popular time for engineering works on the UK rail network – with the Christmas holidays in particular providing a quieter window to maintain lines while minimising disruption. Our team of noise abatement experts have worked with railway contractors for more than three decades and have vast experience and understanding of the industry’s unique demands. **Why Echo Barrier?** Track renewal and maintenance works are unique in that they mostly take place at night or on weekends – placing tight timeframes on contractors to finish works on time. The weight of keeping both commuters and the economy moving makes these works among the most stressful to complete. Echo Barrier’s world-leading noise abatement solutions can reduce noise from rail works by as much as 20dB – a 90% reduction.   Such significant reductions in noise don’t just protect contractors from potentially derailing noise complaints, but allow for site operating hours to be increased. And that’s not taking into account the time contractors save thanks to the ease-of-use of all our H-Series™ barriers, which can easily be installed, taken down and stored away by just one worker. Other benefits include their ruggedness – with all barriers able to withstand the elements thanks to their weatherproofing. **Echo Barrier in action** We were proud to support TfL during a busy maintenance period at Earl’s Court underground station – allowing for site operating hours to be extended thanks to our innovative noise abatement systems. Not a single noise complaint was made during the 12-day Christmas period in 2013, with maintenance teams from Track Partnership able to work 24-hours a day to see works finished on-time. This spared commuters from potential further disruption – and saw us approached for similar projects in later years. **Secure yours today** If you’re planning rail improvement works and want to minimise noise complaints while keeping your project both on-time and on budget, contact us today. Our products are available for both purchase and hire from our website and distributors across the UK.
