Thales to upgrade Madrid-Seville high-speed route
21 December 2021
France’s Thales has won two contracts to modernise the Madrid-Seville High-Speed line, which commenced operations 30 years ago.
The combined value of these contracts stands at around $110.97m (€98m).
The first contract has an estimated value of approximately $90.59 (€80m), funded by EU reserves, and will have an implementation time of 52 months.
Under this contract, the main signalling installations (electronic interlockings) on the route will be swapped with other modern electronic interlockings.
Under the second contract, worth $20.38m (€18m), the company will replace 1,306 track circuits for this same high-speed track to substitute the existing FTG-type ones.
