There is a lack of railway traffic control systems in Europe and Poland that would meet the needs of low-density lines. The reliability and maintainability of such systems should guarantee low operating costs. PKP PLK S.A. intends to equip lines with comprehensive railway traffic management solutions adequate to their needs, including radio communications and additional infrastructure, dedicated to low-traffic lines. PLK has identified four test sites (sections of railway lines: 191, 27, 68, 203) where new technological solutions will be tested.The allocation of EU funds to Poland for the development of transport infrastructure is a great opportunity for Polish railways. The rapid development of the conventional and high-speed railway network will be possible thanks to the introduction of new technological solutions, both in the field of telecommunications and railway signaling (GSM-R, ETCS systems).
The modern European Train Control System (ETCS) has been designed for use on all categories of infrastructure covering passenger and freight traffic, sections of high-speed lines, conventional and regional lines. (…)
