The Footprint Modular Platform is an innovative modular platform system made from recycled tyre rubber. A collaboration between Footprint Civil Solutions, Rosehill Rail, Scott Parnell, and Arcadis, the cost-effective system has the potential to revolutionise platform construction thanks to reduced installation times, low maintenance requirements, and a negative carbon footprint. Breaking the norm of station design and platform installation, the Footprint Modular Platform is built from individual rubber blocks perfectly sized and weighted for manual handling and designed to simplify the construction process by minimising the requirement for on-track plant. In an industry where concrete and steel have long been king, the emergence of a viable sustainable alternative offers an opportunity to significantly reduce carbon emissions when compared to traditional materials. A typical 36 metre platform extension saves 25 tons of carbon. Manufactured in the UK by Rosehill Rail using its proprietary cold-cure compression moulding process to ensure short lead times, the Footprint Modular Platform is made to Network Rail specifications and distributed by Scott Parnell’s extensive network. Each platform can be faced to match the existing aesthetics of the station.
