Gateway is a bespoke health and safety scheme Crossrail brought in a year ago under its Target Zero – A State of Mind initiative, which aims to deliver a world class health and safety standard across the entire programme, protecting the work environment and keeping everyone safe.

Gateway measures and celebrates the health and safety performance of its contractors. Each company is marked under six major pillars which include Leadership and Behaviour; Communication; Designing for Health and Safety; Workplace Health; Workplace Safety and Performance Improvement. Assessed every four months, a total of 21 contractors were appraised in the most recent round, so to be the first team to attain "Inspirational" status is a major achievement.
"We are delighted to have achieved success in the latest round of Crossrail’s Gateway Scheme. It came as a result of a team effort at Bond Street where everyone has a voice and everyone is empowered to ensure safety is number one. We have a project environment where seeking alternative, safer and innovative ways of working is actively encouraged," said Claire Carr, the Costain Project Manager at Bond Street.
