INSE RAIL, as part of a joint venture (UTE), has been awarded the contract for “Technical assistance for the monitoring and control of the execution of the catenary section switch remote control and electrification projects on the Sotiello – Aboño branch line of the Metre-Gauge Network in Asturias”, promoted by ADIF.
The project forms part of the investments aimed at modernising the energy and railway electrification facilities of the metre-gauge network in Asturias, with the objective of improving the reliability, availability and management capacity of the railway electrical infrastructure.
The contract includes the provision of technical assistance services for the monitoring and control of the works associated with the implementation of remote control systems for catenary section switches, which will enable remote operation and centralised supervision of the electrification facilities, optimising response times in the event of incidents and improving network operating conditions.
Likewise, the actions include works related to the electrification of the Sotiello – Aboño branch line, incorporating the electrical installations and associated systems required to guarantee the operability and continuity of railway services in an active operating environment.
The works carried out by the joint venture will include technical construction supervision, quality control, planning follow-up, coordination of interfaces between railway systems, and support for the supervision of safety and operational conditions during the execution of the works.
With this award, INSE RAIL strengthens its experience in railway projects related to electrification, energy and facility control, consolidating its position in the field of engineering and technical assistance for complex railway infrastructures managed by ADIF.
