Trains remain the most popular mode of public transport for 9.2 million Australians. As cities expand and demand for rail services grows, the need for safe, efficient, and well-managed rail construction has never been greater. At RVT, our mission is to help you create safer worksites through proactive rail construction hazard management.
Rail construction is complex, with risks that range from excessive noise to hazardous dust and toxic fumes. Our role is to help you with rail construction hazard management through long-term equipment hire.
With decades of expertise and a deep understanding of industry regulations, we work alongside you to keep your project moving safely and efficiently. Whether it's tunnelling under urban centres or upgrading major stations, we help you ensure the health and safety of communities nearby and every worker on site.
At RVT, we provide long-term equipment hire solutions for large-scale rail projects across Australia. Our rail construction ventilation, noise control solutions, fume extraction systems, and dust control systems are designed to help ensure worker safety, regulatory compliance, and project efficiency in major rail construction.
RVT provide industrial ventilation solutions that enable you to continuously force fresh air into enclosed spaces such as tunnels and stations during maintenance works
RVT provide extraction and filtration units which are designed to remove dangerous fumes from activities such as thermit welding
RVT offer fire resistant Soundex® acoustic barriers to reduce disruption to commuters, local residents and businesses
RVT offer a wide range of monitors to check and measure noise, vibration, dust, gases and diesel particulate matter (DPM)
Ventilation Solutions for Tunnel Projects
Over the years, we have provided countless ventilation solutions for tunnel projects. With an industrial underground air ventilation system, you can continuously force fresh air into enclosed spaces, such as tunnels and stations, during maintenance works. We have both axial and centrifugal fans to cater for your specific site needs.
Fume Extraction and Filtration
Minimise workers' exposure to airborne contaminants and reduce the risk of long-term respiratory issues with a high-performance fume extraction system. We have a wide range of extraction and filtration units that are designed to remove dangerous fumes from activities such as thermit welding.
Noise Control in Rail Construction
Construction noise can be a serious issue, both for workers and the surrounding community. Whether your team is working in densely populated areas or enclosed spaces, our noise control solutions can help maintain compliance with workplace noise regulations. We have a wide range of rail construction noise management solutions, including Soundex® acoustic enclosures and other advanced sound barriers designed to minimise noise disruption on site.
Dust Control
Dust exposure is another major hazard in rail construction, particularly in excavation and track maintenance work. Suppress airborne particles, preventing silica and other harmful dust from spreading across the site with our top-of-the-line dust control systems, including Dustex dust extraction, enclosures, and vacuums.
At RVT, we specialise in hazard management for the rail sector across Australia. Whether you are digging tunnels, reinforcing tracks, or modernising stations, our team can help you identify potential risks, design a comprehensive strategy following our Hazard-Control-Execute methodology, and choose the best equipment for ventilation, dust and noise control, and fume extraction.
Our expertise in rail construction hazard management ensures your site remains compliant, your workers stay protected, and your project runs smoothly. Contact us to discuss your project and explore our full range of equipment hire options.
