The BGA held its September meeting last night with an excellent overview of six landslips that occurred on Network Rail infrastructure between June 2012 and February 2013 by the Rail Accident Investigation Branch's (RAIB) Chris Ford. Followed by a summary of Network Rail's actions in response to the report by Simon Abbot.

Why not join us next month on 12th October 2016 at the ICE when the BGA jointly with the UK Chapter of the International Geosynthetics Society hosts an evening meeting on "Geomembrane performance in landfill" by Dr George R. Koerner from the Geosynthetic Institute.
