Prime Minister David Cameron visited Crossrail’s Westbourne Park site in west London recently to view the tunnel boring machines (TBMs) ahead of Crossrail tunnelling commencing next month.
The Prime Minister was joined by Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy to meet engineers and construction workers and to hear more about tunnelling preparations for Europe’s largest civil engineering project.
Construction of Crossrail’s western tunnels between Royal Oak and Farringdon is being undertaken by a UK joint venture comprising BAM Nuttal, Kier Construction and Ferrovial Agroman – the UK subsidiary of Spanish multinational Ferrovial.
