Metro Go Legal Services

Location

Description

Nexus requires suitably qualified and experienced legal advisors who will be appointed to a seven year contract with an option to extend for up to a further three years to support Nexus on the Metro Go project. This will involve, amongst other associated workstreams, a project to plan, procure, design, construct, commission and safely operate a new signalling system for the Tyne and Wear Metro Network. The Metro Go Project Metro Go is the project name for one of Nexus' biggest projects to date in terms of size and scale. The project will replace Nexus' outdated signalling system with a modern, technologically advanced system that befits an operational light transit rail network (the Metro Network). Whilst Nexus has already invested in a new rolling-stock fleet of class 555 units, to ensure that the Metro units can operate efficiently, it is essential that a new signalling system is designed and implemented across the Metro Network. The signalling system is an essential and safety critical component of the Metro Network that must align and interface with all trains and other existing infrastructure on the Metro Network. Understanding these interfaces will be critical to ensuring the success of Metro Go and of ensuring that impacts on operational service are minimised during delivery phases. Nexus requires legal advisors who understand these interfaces and who will pre-emptively assist in managing the associated legal/commercial risks throughout the Metro Go project.
