Description
Outlines how the University of Huddersfield Institute of Railway Research (IRR) can provide further support to Network Rail (NR) in justifying the relaxation of speed restrictions and operational constraints applied during periods of hot weather, to ensure that the GB railway is more resilient to climate change. It builds on previous work carried out by the IRR and the University of Southampton (UoS), and takes advantage of a testing programme being planned by MxV in the USA. This international collaboration will enhance the understanding of track buckle formation and the accuracy of models used to predict it.
