The installation works are part of the set of actions included to move the railroad tracks in the municipality of Sant Feliu de Llobregat underground in the section between the stations of Molins de Rei and Cornella.
The purpose of the project is to adapt the sensing systems to the different phases of civil works to move the Sant Feliu de Llobregat station underground in order to maintain service and guarantee the safety of railway traffic.
Some of the main facilities and activities covered by the contract include the interlockings and blocks, signaling facilities and centralized traffic control systems (PLO and CTC), installation of train protection systems, installation of fixed communications and associated systems, energy supply to the facilities, auxiliary civil works, installation of the cable network needed to operate the facilities and environmental integration of the works and facilities.
The integration of the railway into the urban center of Sant Feliu de Llobregat will promote one of the most important urban development and railway transformation projects in the Transformem Rodalies plan, which will eliminate the existing grade crossing, build a new underground station and fully integrate the railway infrastructure in the urban network, creating new spaces for socio-economic activity and promoting new operating arrangements for the railway network in the proximity of Barcelona and its metropolitan area.
