    Hi

    It depends if the railway is from scratch or updating exsisting.

    If from scratch logically you’d go from Site Aquiring, high level design, Engineering, Design, Build , Engineer & Test.

    Dear
    First of all you need to inform that your project is EPC, or construction only.
    Then you may find the help from some one.
    You need to give some detail so every come to know actually what you want.

    Thank you all,

    It is basically a construction project, procurement and construction only involved, no engineering in terms of design or redesign at this stage is required since it is an already designed project.

    The scope involved all civil and track works; excavation, backfilling, re-routing of utilities, communication and signaling enabling works, crossing bridges, culverts, diversion roadworks, rail-crossings, tracks... the complete package in summary...

    thank you again... it’s a hill of a job i know... any help would be great... especially if get the project :)
