Avoiding pollution and waste

Although far from new, emissions are a topical issue. Our need for transport and our drive for sustainability need not be in conflict as proper understanding and action can deliver both.

How we can help

  • Emission of particles and gases together with pollution through the discharge of oil and fluid are increasingly important issues. We can support the development of vehicle and infrastructure concepts, system design and the development and implementation of procedures for routine operations.

  • Our full system experience enables us to optimise environmental issues over the entire transportation system, building environmental improvement into all activities.

What are the benefits?

  • Compliance with the pollution requirements of relevant regulators and authorities

  • Improved competitive advantage of your vehicle fleet in future concessions

  • Fulfilling pollution requirements of regulators and authorities

  • Less traction unit oil waste; less chance of mechanical failures

  • Improved asset disposal and re-use

  • A positive reputation for sustainability and environmental management. 

Recent projects

  • We were retained by a railway maintenance company to prepare an environmental improvement plan to reduce oil and gas emissions from diesel trains.

  • We investigated oil leakage from various DMU trains on behalf of NS Dutch Railways and Northern Rail.
