M Group Services, a leading provider of services to essential infrastructure markets in the UK, with a turnover of over £1.2bn, has announced the acquisition of Antagrade Electrical.
Antagrade is one of the UK’s leading providers of specialist railway electrification infrastructure services including the design, installation, testing and commissioning of substations and track equipment that powers the rail network.

Following the acquisition, Antagrade will retain its brand identity and continue to operate as a standalone specialist services business, forming part of M Group Services’ transport division that includes Dyer & Butler, a multi-disciplined engineering services specialist focused on essential infrastructure including airports, railways and highways.
