The VolkerRail Group – formerly GrantRail – have recently rebranded and are ready to further develop the future of rail infrastructure in the UK.

The forward thinking and innovative Group are part of the newly formed VolkerWessels UK Group, who have a combined force of approximately £700m annual turnover and 2,500 employees nationwide.

VolkerRail continues to offer a multidisciplinary rail infrastructure capability from design, manufacture and construction to life time maintenance across track, signalling, overhead electrification, HV and LV power, welding and specialist rail coatings.

With the strengthened cohesive link to the VolkerWessels UK Group, further integration of skills and expertise can take place for a variety of projects providing clients with an unrivalled cradle to grave service.

The development and maintenance of a highly experienced and specialist workforce continues to underpin the company’s success. VolkerRail has remained true to its core belief that people matter and believe that the RailStaff Awards are a great initiative that provides an opportunity to recognise the ‘unsung heroes’ within the rail industry. 

The sponsorship of the Rail Engineer of the Year category demonstrates the company’s commitment to ensuring industry professionals are recognised for their contribution in building a sustainable railway for the future.
