The contract covers the design, procurement, installation, commissioning and maintenance of the signalling, the fixed telecommunication and the automatic train protection systems on the 310km high-speed line connecting Valladolid to León and Venta de Baños to Burgos.

Alstom Spain country president Antonio Moreno said: "This will be the second ERTMS level 2 signalling system commissioned in Spain without ETCS (European train control system) level 1 backup support, after the one installed by Alstom on the Albacete-Alicante new high-speed line.

"This configuration, made possible thanks to Alstom’s technological expertise, allowed a significant reduction of the initial cost of civil works."
