    Arcadis’ National Highways programme role: key delivery notes for road engineers

    Arcadis’ National Highways programme role: key delivery notes for road engineers

    First reported on New Civil Engineer

    30 Second Briefing

    Arcadis has secured two National Highways contracts to provide programme and project management for asset management, roadside technology and major scheme delivery across multiple English regions. The work covers strategic road network assets and ITS/communications systems, supporting planning and delivery of upgrades on high‑traffic corridors where lane availability, pavement condition and real‑time traffic management are critical. For contractors and designers, this signals continued emphasis on integrated asset data, technology‑heavy schemes and coordinated delivery frameworks on England’s motorways and trunk roads.

    Technical Brief

    • Data-led asset management expected, with emphasis on condition surveys, deterioration modelling and risk-based intervention planning.

    Our Take

    Arcadis also appears in our coverage on the Fiddlers Ferry coal power station regeneration, signalling that its UK workload spans both major highways for National Highways and complex brownfield redevelopment schemes for private clients like Peel NRE.

    In another recent item, Arcadis is using Revizto on the Warringah Freeway Upgrade in New South Wales, suggesting that its programme management offer to National Highways in England is likely to be underpinned by mature digital coordination and model‑federation workflows.

    Within the 315 Infrastructure stories in our database, Arcadis is one of the more frequently recurring consultants, indicating that National Highways’ choice aligns with a pattern of tier‑one clients relying on the firm for large, multi‑year transport programmes in the UK and overseas.

    Implenia/Marti JV MehrSpur Zurich–Winterthur: design and risk notes for engineers

    Swiss Federal Railways has awarded an Implenia/Marti 50:50 joint venture five of six MehrSpur Zurich–Winterthur lots worth just under CHF 1.7 billion, including the 8.3 km Brüttener tunnel (Lot 240) with twin 10 m diameter single-track tubes and a 1 km spur to Zurich Airport. TBM excavation will start in August 2029, with a roughly ten-year construction phase using BIM for planning and execution and extensive special foundations, earthworks and embankments. Additional works cover full redevelopment of Dietlikon station, about 6 km of new track across Dietlikon and Wallisellen sections, multiple underpasses, bridges and the Neumühle railway bridge and Storchen underpass near Winterthur.

    Xihe on Tung Chung Line down-track: TBM turnback method and risks for tunnel engineers

    TBM Xihe, a 7.3m-diameter, 100m-long, 1,000-tonne Herrenknecht slurry machine, has completed the up-track drive to the future Tung Chung West Station and has begun boring the down-track tunnel towards Tung Chung Station for MTR’s Tung Chung Line Extension in Hong Kong. The Bouygues Travaux Publics–Dragages Hong Kong JV turned the TBM underground within the launch shaft using a push-pull method and self-propelled modular transporter, avoiding full disassembly and surface transport. About 1.3km of new twin-bore tunnels are being driven close to existing rail and urban structures, with commissioning targeted for 2029.
