£1m a week profit for Metronet
24 October 2004

Private Tube firm Metronet said it had racked up annual profits of almost £1 million a week.

The group, which runs two-thirds of the London Underground network, said pre-tax profits in the year to March 31 were £50.6 million.

The figure includes £24.1 million from Metronet's BCV group, which runs the Bakerloo, Central and Victoria lines, and £26.5 million from its SSL company, which covers the sub-surface Circle, District, Metropolitan and Hammersmith & City lines.

LONDON (AFX) - Metronet, the consortium responsible for the maintenance of
much of the London Underground, posted a 50.6 mln stg pretax profit in the year
to March 31.

That compared with a 6.8 mln stg loss in the year-earlier period.

Metronet is made up of five equal partners, including UK support services
group WS Atkins PLC and construction group Balfour Beatty PLC.

The other shareholders are Canadian engineering group Bombardier Inc, along
with two utility companies Electricity de France unit Seeboard and Thames Water
PLC, which is owned by Germany's RWE AG.

Metronet is responsible for upgrading, replacing and maintaining two-thirds
of London Underground's infrastructure - its trains, stations, signalling,
track, tunnels and bridges - under a 30-year contract which came into force in
April 2003.
