Tarmac in Railways: Essential Applications Beyond Rails and Ties
While railroads primarily consist of steel rails and wooden or concrete ties, tarmac surfacing is used in various ways which are crucial within the rail sector:
Tarmac is frequently used at railroad crossings to provide a smooth and durable surface for vehicles to traverse the tracks safely. These surfaces are often equipped with warning signs, lights, and sometimes crossing gates to ensure the safety of both vehicular and rail traffic.
For passenger rail systems, it is important that the platforms provide a stable, level surface for passengers to board and disembark from trains. They are designed to withstand heavy foot traffic and, in some cases, the weight of luggage carts or vehicles for loading and unloading.

Get In TouchWe can create access roads for maintenance vehicles to reach different parts of the rail network. These roads provide easy access for maintenance crews and equipment, ensuring timely repairs and inspections of the tracks and other infrastructure.
We provide an excellent service in surfacing parking areas for railcars, locomotives, and other rail-related equipment. Our high standards will ensure durability and the ability to support the weight of these heavy vehicles.
In areas where rail tracks intersect or split into multiple tracks (crossovers) or where additional tracks are used for temporary storage or passing (siding tracks), tarmac may be used to create a stable surface for switches and turnouts. These areas require a level surface to ensure safe and efficient rail operations.
We strongly believe that we can help ensure the safety and efficiency of rail operations and provide a stable solution for both rail and vehicular traffic in and around railway facilities. Proper installation and maintenance are essential to ensure the longevity and functionality of surfaces in the rail sector.
