Progress on the 1998 NMS
DARTFORD-AREA SIGNALLING RENEWAL Work is progressing with
completion scheduled for 2001.
KINGSFERRY BRIDGE Strengthening and refurbishment works have been
completed.
LINESPEED IMPROVEMENTS We are undertaking a number of studies
examining the feasibility of linespeed improvements between Swanley and
Ramsgate via Faversham.
STATIONS Station regeneration works have been completed at Crayford,
Belvedere, Chatham, Dartford, Canterbury East, Dover Priory and Ramsgate.
Customer-information systems at all Connex franchised stations are being
improved through a Railtrack and Connex partnership scheme.
MILLENNIUM DOME ACCESS Major works are planned to enhance station
facilities at Charlton, which is the chosen railhead for the Millennium Dome.
This station will provide an interchange for bus services to the site.
EAST KENT & MEDWAY VALLEY SIGNALLING RENEWAL Reassessment of the
condition of the signalling equipment in the East Kent & Medway Valley areas has
concluded that life-extension works will enable resignalling to be postponed
beyond 2004.
ANGERSTEIN & HITHER GREEN RESIGNALLING We have carried out detailed
condition assessments in the Angerstein & Hither Green areas and have
concluded that renewal work will need to be undertaken in the Hither Green
area by 2001. Replacement of the signalling interlocking at Angerstein is also
scheduled for 2001.
