Highly Commended in the Highways and Railways Category for Okehampton Interchange Station
We are proud to have received a Highly Commended in the Highways and Railways category at this year’s AFI UK Fencing Awards for our work at Okehampton Interchange Station.
Our first large-scale railway project
Okehampton Interchange was our first large-scale railway project. Working for Octavius Infrastructure, we delivered a £170,000 package of Network Rail specification mesh fencing, gates, platform end protection, bespoke walkway railings and warm-to-touch handrails across the new station. To receive recognition in such a strong category, against contractors who work in the rail sector every day, is a fantastic achievement for the whole Knight Fencing team.
Building experience in the rail sector
For us it is also a good indication of how far we have come and where we are heading. Our second major railway project is now underway at Charfield Station, and we are continuing to build our experience within the rail sector and take on bigger and more complex schemes. Highly Commended this year; we would like to go one better next year.
A huge well done to everyone involved in delivering the Okehampton project and helping us reach this milestone. Knight Fencing is also a finalist in four other categories at this year’s awards, which you can read about in our AFI Awards 2026 finalists post.
