Services
New Track Construction
Southworks Construction provides end-to-end solutions for new rail infrastructure, from industrial spurs to expansive sidings. We specialize in building tracks from the ground up, ensuring every component—from the subgrade to the final rail fastening—meets precise engineering standards and operational requirements.
Civil Site Work
Our turnkey capabilities begin with comprehensive civil site work. We handle the heavy lifting of land clearing, grading, and site preparation, ensuring a stable and level foundation. By managing the earthwork in-house, we guarantee that the transition from raw land to finished track is seamless and structurally sound.
Rail Take-up
When rail lines reach the end of their service life or land needs to be repurposed, we provide efficient rail take-up services. Our team manages the careful removal of steel, ties, and OTM (other track material), prioritizing site reclamation and the organized recovery of salvageable materials.
Inspections
Safety and compliance are the cornerstones of rail operations. We conduct detailed track inspections to identify wear, structural defects, or geometric inconsistencies before they become liabilities. Our thorough reporting helps clients maintain regulatory standards and plan for proactive repairs.
Derailments
In the event of an emergency, Southworks Construction provides rapid response services for derailments. We focus on getting your track back in service as quickly as possible, performing urgent repairs to damaged rails and ties to minimize downtime and restore the flow of commerce.
Track Rehab and Maintenance
Preserving the integrity of your rail investment requires consistent upkeep. Our maintenance and rehabilitation services range from replacing individual cross ties to large-scale surfacing and gauging. We specialize in extending the lifespan of your assets through meticulous attention to detail.
Road Crossings
We install and repair various types of road crossings, ensuring a smooth and safe interface between rail and vehicular traffic. Whether utilizing timber, concrete, or rubber surfaces, our crossings are built to withstand heavy axial loads and high-traffic volume while maintaining proper track alignment.
Drainage
Proper water management is essential to preventing track instability and ballast fouling. We design and implement effective drainage solutions, including ditching and culvert installation, to divert water away from the track structure and protect the long-term integrity of the roadbed.
