WHAT IS A RAIL SIDINGS FOR AGGREGATES MANCHESTER?

Rail siding refers to a short section of railway track that is connected to a main nation railway line network and leads to a loading or unloading area. Rail sidings are often used by businesses and industrial facilities to load and unload goods such as quarried aggregates from rail cars and can help facilitate efficient rail transportation.

By using the rail network for the transportation of aggregates in cities like Manchester, we reduce our carbon footprint significantly by reducing the number of truck movements by road. With each freight train reducing emissions by as much as 76% when compared to road usage whilst carrying the equivalent of 80 truck loads of aggregates.

We utilise rail sidings daily for a wide range of virgin quarried aggregates such as limestone mot type 1, 10mm limestone pipe bedding, rail track ballast and 6F5 capping. We deliver these aggregates across Greater Manchester and the north west with our modern fleet of tipper hire and grab hire truck and can collect site waste such as inert muck away and hardcore for further processing to produce quality and sustainable recycled aggregates in Manchester.
