Invensys Dimetronic has won a Euro 3.5 million contract to modify the ASFA national railways network train protection system currently in use on the Madrid-Seville high-speed line signalling system.

Under its contract, Invensy Dimetronic will modify the existing ASFA system within the next 18 months.

Based in Madrid and with facilities in Barcelona, Valencia, Lisbon and Porto, Invensys Dimetronic is the leading supplier of signalling and control systems for both mainline and mass transit railways in the Iberian peninsula.

Invensys Dimetronic has won a Euro 6.4 million contract from Spanish civil contractor SACYR for signalling works associated with a new high-speed line (HSL) linking Malaga and Cordoba.

The overall project involves building an entirely new line in parallel to the existing one, together with extensive modifications to existing signalling systems. As part of the HSL, the Spanish Ministry of Infrastructures and the local council in Malaga have also agreed on the construction of a new rail tunnel near the city.

Under its contract, Invensys Dimetronic is responsible for modifying both the existing Westrace electronic interlocking system in Malaga and all the trackside equipment involved. This will be carried out in several stages in order to help with the overall project management of the civil infrastructure construction. The company will also be carrying out modifications to Spanish infrastructure administrator ADIF’s centralised traffic control (CTC) technology in Malaga.

SACYR is the main sub-contractor for ADIF on this project, which is due to be completed in 18 months.
