Transport for London has appointed VolkerFitzpatrick and Taylor Woodrow on the Piccadilly Line upgrade

The firms will provide early contractor involvement (ECI) services for the Cockfosters and Northfields depots in the first phase of the two-part project.

The second phase encompasses the detailed design and build stage, which is due to start in 2025. 

The new facilities will house 94 Siemens Mobility-built trains, which form part of TfL’s plan to modernise one of the city’s busiest transport routes. 

Pagabo’s civil engineering and infrastructure framework awarded the contracts under a single procurement to streamline the process, with nine other large-scale London infrastructure projects also procured through Pagabo.
