First deployment of the Network Rail Traffic management (TM) solution is taking place at two Route
Operation Centres (ROCs), ultimately for National roll-out. This part of the project is for First deployment
only. For this phase of delivery the TM systems will be deployed at Cardiff for the Wales ROC and at
Upminster the IECC control area is being re-controlled to the Romford ROC (in London). Essentially the
work is a re-control of two existing traditionally controlled signalling areas.

Project4:Swindon AreaSignalling RenewalProject.
Client:MGB EngineeringLimited(U.K.)
Description:
Swindon Area Signalling Renewal (SASR) project was a part of the Western Main-line Signalling Renewal
(WMSR) Programme and renewed the signalling equipment in the Swindon Area and re-controlled it to a
new workstation at Thames Valley Signalling Control Centre (TVSC). And with other WMSR projects, it was
an enabling project for the Great Western Main-line Electrification (GWMLE) Programme, provided a
signalling system which is AC immune. In addition this project installed the Return Screening Conductor
(RSC) and provided a common earth (in line with the immunisation strategy).

3. Responsibilities:
 Designed circuits for interfacing, data link modules with track side function modules, cabling for
track side equipments like TPWS, AWS, Point machines, Axle Counters and circuits of Point
Machine for driving, locking and detection for new SSI locations as per inputs such as Location
Area Plan, scheme plan, Cable core plan, Axle counter schematics, Cable schematics, TFM
schematics & DLM schematics.

Project5:Norwood Junction Signal T22
Client:Network Rail (U.K.)
Description:
T10 Signal which was positioned on a separate post, and applying to movements off of the Fork Arrival
Road to the left of the ULBS, there was a perceived advantage in moving T10 signal onto the existing
gantry immediately totheleft hand sideof T22, the intentionbeingthat this wouldenable drivers approaching
on the ULBS to accurately count across to the Fork Arrival Road to the left and so better “place” T20 to
the right, eliminating the suspected underlying cause of reading across from T22 to T20.
Responsibilities:
 DesignedNorwood JunctionSchemePlanusingPlanSoftware.
 Prepared Correlation Pack under theguidance of Team Leader.
 Done Detail Design ofNorwood Junctionlocationcases. Alterationinclude:
 Shifting of Signal T10 from existing position to gantry.

done required modification in the circuit.
 Done alteration in the interface wiring of relay room.
 Involved in Relay Rack Design and Cable Termination Design
