In addition, they needed a product that featured pre-drilled holes so that they could accept cable cleats for signal cables.\u201d \u201cTraditional cable hanging systems wouldn\u2019t have coped with these requirements on the basis they come in set sizes and configurations. Our thinking when we designed Pegasus was that no two rail projects are ever the same and as such project-byproject flexibility was vital.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-18578 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/11-2-1-103x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"103\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/11-2-1-103x300.jpg 103w, https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/11-2-1-51x150.jpg 51w, https:\/\/ewnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/11-2-1.jpg 107w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 103px) 100vw, 103px\" \/>As with all of its products, Pegasus was designed and developed completely in-house by Ellis Patents. Featuring an aluminium spine that can support any number and configuration of polymer cable hangers, the modular cable hanging system is not only more adaptable than similar products, it\u2019s also stronger and lighter; making it quick and easy to install. Ellis Patents manufactures Pegasus cable hangers using LUL approved materials, which are suitable for installation underground and within tunnels, as well as UV stabilised materials for installations above ground and trackside.<\/p>\n<p>The Bank Station Capacity Upgrade project was aimed at relieving heavy passenger congestion during peak hours and has seen the construction of a new southbound platform tunnel and associated length of running tunnel for the Northern line. It also incorporated the construction of connecting passageways to the existing station tunnels and the provision of step-free access from King William Street. It is due to be complete and fully operational in the Autumn.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ellispatents.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.ellispatents.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>01944 758395<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Transport for London (TfL) has installed Ellis Patents\u2019 innovative Pegasus cable hangers in its \u00a3500million Bank Station Capacity Upgrade project.
