Funding entity Dimetronic Signals
Participated by Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya
In previous projects studies have been carried out about railway capacity, train timetable planning and train headways. These studies had finished in 2009 with a new timetable of 32 trains per hour in Plaza de Catalunya, after improving the signaling systems in some points of the railway net.
In this project new studies will be carried out with the aim of increasing the railway capacity to 40 trains per hour in Plaza de Cataluña in the year 2015. For that, new improvements in the signaling system will be considered, as well as the modification of the tracks and new operation patterns needed to reach that goal.
