 |
First of all we dig a hole about 300 feet long and two feet deep (no parking wil be allowed on this stretch) | |
|
A concrete base layer is poured into a wooden frame
in the hole
|
 |
|
 |
A metal re-inforcement cage is laid out and welded together... | |
|
...and a second layer of concrete
is poured on top
|
 |
|
 |
The rails we use are coated in a rubber-like material that will keep noise and vibration down. | |
|
Rails are set in place and bolted
to the concrete base
|
 |
|
 |
Rail sections are joined together by high temperature welding... | |
|
...and the new joint is ground
to the right shape
|
 |
|
 |
Another wooden frame is built around the rails... | |
|
...rail drainage boxes are installed
at regular intervals...
|
 |
|
 |
...more wooden framing is put in place... | |
|
...and a final layer of concrete
is poured
|
 |
|
 |
The concrete is then treated to improve weather protection... | |
|
...and the road surface is replaced
leaving the tracks flush with the ground
