BAM and Aedas have been assigned the contract to design and build the Rail Operating Centre (ROC) and a training centre, to be located in the Engineer’s Triangle. This ROC will be one of the 14 ROCs that have been proposed to come up in UK. This ROC will have 3,000 workers working.  This ROC will consolidate all the purposes and serve as a single location for all services instead of having all services present at different locations.

York Engineers Triangle
Aedas is the architect who will be working on the project and BAM will be the contractor. The contractor and the architect together will have to design and execute the construction too. This ROC along with the other new ones are constructed to co-ordinate the rail operations and also control them in the London North Eastern Route.
John Phillips, construction director for BAM, #-Link-Snipped-#, “The York Engineers Triangle will provide a railway operations centre housed in modern high specification office facilities with the capacity to expand to 48 desks over time. We will also develop a detailed design for the workforce development centre which will be learning space, such as lecture theatres and classrooms and areas to simulate track repair and maintenance. We’re now working closely as part of the joint project team with Network Rail, Aedas and Giffords, who will provide the structural and mechanical expertise, to progress the project.â€
BAM and Aedas are already working in other projects with Network Rail. BAM is constructing the National Centre in Milton Keynes which will be commissioned by 2012 summer and also is involved with the redevelopment of the retail units present at Waterloo Station. The architect has been involved in the Network Rail projects at Euston, Manchester, Rotherham, Bolton, Edinburg and Leeds.
The construction of this ROC and training centre is expected to commence sometime in the next summer, after securing all the permissions and finish by 2014. After that the staff would be relocated to the new ROC.
