Rapid Emergency Possession Planning
Fast & Fully Compliant Emergency Access
When time is critical, RPS mobilises quickly to secure safe access, complete essential paperwork, and coordinate urgent rail activity. Our team specialises in fast-turnaround support that remains accurate, compliant, and aligned with Network Rail requirements — even at extremely short notice.
Urgent Possession & Line Block Requests
We handle all emergency access requests directly through the correct channels, ensuring applications are processed swiftly and without error. Our planners work closely with Route Control, PICOPs, and delivery partners to secure the access your teams need to respond immediately.
Real-Time Documentation & WON Adjustments
Where late changes impact the Weekly Operating Notice (WON) or published plans, our team manages rapid updates and ensures all documentation reflects the final agreed arrangements. This helps minimise disruption and keeps operational teams informed and prepared.
Rapid On-Site Coordination & Support
Our emergency planners work alongside your project teams to coordinate fast, safe, and controlled on-site setup. From confirming worksite boundaries to ensuring staff are fully briefed, we help establish a compliant emergency worksite so reactive works can begin without delay.
Immediate Response to Emerging Issues
RPS provides short-notice planning support when unexpected failures, incidents, or infrastructure faults occur. We manage urgent submissions, liaise with Network Rail, and capture all access changes in real time — helping your team maintain programme resilience and minimise impact on the network.
Late Access & Change Requests (Emergency ARPCRs)
Emergency works often require rapid amendments. RPS completes urgent ARPCR submissions, secures the necessary approvals, and ensures documentation remains fully compliant. We help you respond quickly while maintaining the highest planning and safety standards.
