Rail is central to moving bulk freight and passengers across African corridors, and the track itself demands specialist construction and upkeep. This course introduces the permanent way, from formation and ballast to rails, sleepers and turnouts, and how each is built and maintained. It equips site teams to construct new track and manage the inspection and maintenance that keeps existing lines safe.
Rail construction supervisors, civil technicians, permanent way inspectors, maintenance teams and infrastructure project staff.
