To improve the quality, maintainability and operational safety of Metro de Madrid’s operating network, an Action Plan has been established for the technological renovation of obsolescent signaling systems that contain contaminating substances, replacing them with state-of-the-art electronic interlockings.
As part of this plan, METRO has planned the execution of the comprehensive renovation works of the signaling system on line 7A, between the Estadio Metropolitano and Pitis stations, to provide the line with a high-performance, high-availability Target Distance signaling system that will make it possible to remove obsolescent equipment. The actions affect 20 kilometers of tunnel and 27 stations.
Inse Rail will supervise the execution of the installations works that will be carried out at night without interrupting service, and five periods of service interruption of approximately 92 hours each planned during 2024/2025. This means that the coordination of the works, both during the periods with service and during the planned closings, will be critical for the execution of the work.
