Octavius secures further £11.5 million phase of Ryde Pier improvements

Octavius has secured the important next phase of work to repair and preserve the historic Ryde Pier structure on the Isle of Wight.

This project phase will include renewal of the permanent way railway tracks, new GRP fencing, walkways and troughing and associated upgrades to signalling.

Octavius Programme Manager Julian Wisbey commented “this award follows a successful phase of work previously completed by Octavius on this historic pier structure. It is particularly pleasing to me that we will remobilise the same team and supply partners who are already familiar with the working environment and needs of local neighbours, businesses and the surrounding community.

“We have incorporated all our learning and best practice from the previous project on the pier into our proposed planning and methodologies of this phase to ensure the project is completed at the earliest opportunity to minimise the level and duration of disruption to passenger services.”
