A view of the work at Glasgow Central's platorm 1. Engineers have been on site since early March, removing rail along the length of the platform and breaking out sections of the concrete slab beneath. More than 100 timber sleepers have been replaced with focus now turning to hanging and installing all 723 baseplates which sit under the rail and help keep it stable. While we're there, our teams also plan to renew signalling cables, clean the buffers and upgrade the tactile paving along the platform.
