CASE STUDY
Private 5G enabling innovation on one of London’s most ambitious infrastructure projects
We deployed a construction phase private 5G network that supports robotics trials, AI-driven safety applications, and immersive BIM workflows across one of London’s most complex build environments.
Next generation connectivity
Our private 5G standalone network supported Ferrovial during the build of the new Silvertown Tunnel, London's first new road tunnel under the Thames in 30 years. Enabling advanced digital applications across three major worksites.
Driving real-time coordination & safer operations
The private 5G network delivered secure, high-performance wireless coverage to support critical construction activities, including:
Connected workers
Reliable voice and data for teams operating across multiple work sites
CCTV & video monitoring
High-definition, low-latency surveillance of key construction zones
Vehicle speed monitoring
Supporting radar-based trials to improve traffic control and reduce risk
Immersive BIM & VR
Real-time design reviews using VR headsets to accelerate decision-making
AI-enabled safety tools
PPE compliance, hazard detection, geofencing, and trip/fall analytics
Robotics trials
Low-latency connectivity enabling safe testing of automated equipment
- “Boldyn’s private 5G solution allowed us to explore the reimagining of how we manage and deliver the construction of a major infrastructure project. It enabled cutting-edge. innovative applications like VR for BIM and automation trials, showed - and gave us a model we can replicate for even larger projects.”
