Health & Safety Nothing is so important on Crossrail that we cannot do it safely. The three Target Zero principles: • We all have the right to go home unharmed everyday • We believe that all harm is preventable • We must all work together to achieve this

Tunnelling

93% of tunnels complete

Completed tunnels

Spray Concrete Lined tunnels

Excavated material On a tonne/km basis 85% of excavated material is transported by rail or water

Archaeology

Skills development 2014 337 Apprentices 6,074 enrolled at TUCA 11,000 employed on the project 755 workers previously unemployed All figures are running totals bar “employed on project”

Future engineers • UK needs to double the number of annual university engineering graduates to 87,000 to meet demand • Just 8.5 per cent of engineers in the UK are women, the lowest representation of any European country • 49% of state schools are not sending a single female student to study A-level maths or sciences.
