EMEA Going Digital Webinar for Rail and Transit: Network Rail
Thank you for your interest in our Going Digital Awards webinar series!
During our Going Digital Awards webinar series, we are showcasing award winners, finalists, and nominees and their outstanding projects that are making the world a safer, more sustainable place. This series is an extension of our Year in Infrastructure conference and Going Digital Awards program, where we celebrate the most extraordinary infrastructure projects and the people behind them. Over the course of this series, we'll showcase some of the best projects that came out from Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
Join us as Network Rail shares its work on the Severn Tunnel, a key freight and passenger rail link between England and South Wales that has been in operation since 1886.
To help preserve the 4.35-mile tunnel and ensure its long-term reliability, Network Rail set out to create a digital twin of the structure. The project involved overcoming challenges related to limited historical data, large scale, and coordination across multiple disciplines and stakeholders.
In this session, you'll learn how Network Rail used Bentley Open applications, ProjectWise, and iTwin technology to:
Create an accurate 3D model of the tunnel and establish a connected data environment. Develop a federated model approach accessible to the full project team and stakeholders. Reduce site visits by 50%, improving safety and lowering carbon emissions. Prepare for future monitoring and maintenance by integrating real-time sensor data. Register today for your chance to hear it straight from the experts!
