Two multi-million pound investments will be delivered by British Steel after it won a major supply contract extension with Network Rail.
A new storage facility for long-length rails and a dedicated train servicing facility for the delivery transport will be built on the Scunthorpe site, after the two-year bolt-on deal was secured.
It means that by the time the latest contract comes to an end in 2024, the North Lincolnshire team will have supplied more than one million tonnes of rail in a decade - enough to cover 19,000 km.
