Network Rail’s contract with its current Digital Footfall provider expires in July 2025, therefore this is a key opportunity for Network Rail to identify the solutions available within the market and request information from the supply base to achieve the below:
The renewal of our obsolete digital footfall technology at identified stations with the preferred technology to include 3d stereoscopic and/or LiDAR in 2 phases:
The first phase "1st of a kind" will provide a Digital footfall solution for 2 managed stations (installation and maintenance) as a proof of concept (1st of a kind) to one small and one medium managed stations (possibly Cannon Street and Charing Cross) with our preferred technology (3d and/or LiDAR)
The second phase, and after review of the benefits will cover the installation and maintenance with the technology installed during phase 1 at all remaining identified managed stations and non-managed stations for regulated escalators only.

II.2.4) Description of the procurement
Network Rail manages 19 of Britain's busiest stations and currently has a footfall counting system installed at 18 stations since 2012. The current technology is using both thermal detectors (around 2000 detectors) and 3d stereoscopic sensors (London Bridge) to measure / count footfall at numerous locations within stations, including points of entry and exit, gatelines, flow and retail units.
It is our expectation that any renewed footfall monitoring technology should equip Network Rail in the following areas and will be delivered in 2 phases.
The first phase "1st of a kind" will provide a Digital footfall solution for 2 managed stations as a proof of concept (1st of a kind) to one small and one medium managed stations (possibly Cannon Street and Charing Cross) with our preferred technology (3d and/or LiDAR)
The second phase, and after review of the benefits will cover the installation with the
technology installed during phase 1 at all remaining identified stations
