The Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility has commissioned Ineco to provide technical assistance for maintenance work on more than 3,000 km of Spanish high-speed railway lines, with a maximum budget of 73 million euros. The service ensures the supervision, inspection and control of maintenance work on the country's main corridors. The contracts associated with this service have a term of three years, extendable to four years, and will succeed the current ones at the end of their term.
Ineco will supervise the maintenance of infrastructures and systems, from the track and its elements (ballast, sleepers, rails and turnouts) to the tunnel protection systems (ventilation, evacuation and emergency systems, among others).This also includes the infrastructure elements (earthworks and drainage, tunnels and viaducts) and the advanced signalling, electrification and telecommunications systems, as well as the various equipment that make them up (ERTMS, catenary, substations, fibre optics, beacons, technical buildings, etc.).).
The Northern High-Speed Corridor will have an investment of 18.5 million euros for the lines connecting Madrid with Segovia, Valladolid, Palencia, León and Burgos, as well as for the section linking Olmedo, Zamora and Ourense. In the case of the Southern Corridor, 17.9 million euros will be earmarked for connections between Madrid and cities such as Puertollano, Ciudad Real, Córdoba, Seville, Málaga and Granada. The Northeast Corridor, with a budget of 19.4 million euros, links Madrid with Zaragoza, Barcelona and the French border. Finally, the Eastern Corridor will receive 17.1 million euros for the lines connecting the capital with Cuenca, Valencia, Albacete, Alicante and Murcia.
These new orders allow, together with the Administrator, to ensure the high standards of quality, availability, reliability, comfort and operation of the lines for which long and medium distance passenger traffic services are provided in the Spanish High Speed, guaranteeing their standards and responding to the continuous increase in traffic.
