Amsterdam – Utrecht ERTMS implementation

Bombardier won the contract for the delivery of electronic control systems for the conventional portion and for the ERTMS level 2 portion (called Dual Signalling).

The contract for this delivery was managed by Attica. An important component was the development of the interface between the existing ProRail rail equipment and Bombardier's electronic interlocking. The linkage of ProRail's control system (VPT) to Bombardier's system was also achieved with a unique interface. In 2007, the rail line was successfully commissioned and now operates to complete satisfaction.
