Romford Rail Operating Centre (ROC)
31/10/2014 – This £32m Network Rail operation and training facility will control the Anglian rail network when in full operation. UMC Architects worked as lead designer with Volker Fitzpatrick, co-ordinating the design using Building Information Modelling (BIM). The fully integrated Revit model was used for clash detection and integration of building services, along with the Network Rail fit-out. The ROC is one of 12 new facilities that will replace existing operating sites and control the entire UK rail network. Volker Fitzpatrick chose to utilise SafeStand® Access Systems to provide working platforms to carry out the blockwork package on site.
