Alstom will build its first railway maintenance workshop at the factory in Santa Perpètua de Mogoda (Barcelona), which is approaching saturation and needs to be expanded and transformed.
Inse Rail will be responsible for preparing the construction design and later supervision of the works of the second large-scale project since the factory first opened in 1993.
The new maintenance workshop will measure 21 meters wide by 115 meters long and will be arranged on a single level. The plant has 3 corridors created by installing 2 tracks on support pillars. It also includes a building that abuts the facade of the building, divided into two floors, measuring 65.7 m long and 8 m wide, and a one-story wing measuring 10.60 m. The ground floor will be used for the reception area and workshops and the spaces for offices and worker services (changing rooms, restrooms, etc.) will be located on the upper floor.
Inse Rail is a leading company in the design of railway workshops and maintenance bases. Some of its more important projects include the design of ADIF’s first workshop in the Madrid-Sur maintenance sub-base and the design for RENFE’s new Fuencarral II high-speed workshop and the expansions of the Self-propelled workshop and the Santa Catalina II maintenance base. It also provided Project Management for the construction and commissioning of the Medina maintenance workshop on the Haramain high-speed line in Saudi Arabia.
