THALES COMPLETES THE COMMISSIONING OF THE ELECTRONIC INTERLOCKING OF THE IRUN
RAILWAY STATION


THE SECURITY INSTALLATIONS AT IRÚN, DATING FROM 1990, HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY A
STATE-OF-THE-ART THALES ELECTRONIC INTERLOCKING SYSTEM THAT ENSURES THE
SUSTAINABLE MOBILITY OF PASSENGERS AND GOODS - A FULL MODERNISATION IN THE
STATION



The “Putting into Service” activities of the electronic interlocking of Irun
station in Spain have finished. This step marks the end of the initial phase of
the contract signed by Adif and Thales in 2016, which covered the modernization
of the signalling and railway traffic control facilities including its
maintenance for the next 20 years.

The safety installations at Irun station have been modernised with innovative
Thales equipment. Specifically the old safe traffic control or interlocking
system, made with electrical technology based on relays, has been replaced by a
state-of-the-art Electronic Interlocking based on Thales’ own technology, and
resulting in an increase in safety, comfort, sustainability and reliability.
Thanks to the optimization of the number of field elements and wiring, the
system requires less maintenance, making it more sustainable, in line with
Thales' commitment to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.

From a technological point of view, the biggest challenge Thales had to face was
ensuring the safe movement of passenger and freight trains was not interrupted.

As it is a border station, up to seven contractors have been involved, which
represented a greater effort and a challenge in terms of management and
coordination. In addition to Adif, SNCF is one of the interlocutors of the
project and user of the new facilities. SNCF’s participation was essential for
the execution of the installation, testing and commissioning work coordinated
between Irun and Hendaye (France).

This commissioning is the first phase of a contract that continues with the
transformation of the station's track bed. The project is essential to improve
the connection of Spain to the rest of Europe by rail.
