The Environment Land Services team, within international infrastructure and business services Group Mouchel, has been awarded a two-year contract extension from Crossrail.

Mouchel began land referencing work for the preparation of the Hybrid Bill in 2002 and it has continued to support Crossrail through the Hybrid Bill submission to parliament, the parliamentary select committee procedures and additional provisions to the Bill. The team is now working on the land acquisition required to deliver the scheme.

Though parliamentary powers will expire in July 2013, this contract extension means that Mouchel will continue to support Crossrail in land acquisition matters during the construction of the tunnels and railway.

Mark Aanensen, Mouchel's Project Manager for Crossrail, said: "This contract extension is a reward for the hard work that the team has put in over the last 10 years or so, and the high calibre of work we have produced for Crossrail. We have continually met the client's needs and provided it with a service that is second to none, building up a strong working relationship, which has been key to this contract extension."
