Needle System is designed to minimise visual intrusion in environmentally sensitive areas and to complement the contemporary cutting-edge design of new HS2 stations.
Conceived as a kit of parts, the Needle System uses a generic mast design that can be configured for twin-track as a simple cantilever, but can also be used with multi-track gantry configurations. It utilises structural profiles which are compatible with a wide variety of standard overhead line equipment components.
