# Success for SYSTRA in Italy for ERTMS signalling on the Naples network

Teams from SYSTRA Italy are preparing to equip half of the Neapolitan railway
network with the most advanced signalling and control systems for supervising
railway operations. The implementation by 2026 of the European Rail Traffic
Management System (ERTMS), coupled with a Centralised Network Control (ACCM),
will offer the operator a more reliable, robust, and flexible operation of its
network, while increasing the level of safety of the lines.

Benefits in terms of consumption and environmental footprint are also expected:
the electrical substations will be equipped to recover almost all the kinetic
energy of trains during braking phases and return it to the network.

In addition, we will participate in the modernisation of the railway
infrastructure (stations, tunnels, engineering structures) and communication
equipment on the Castellammare-Sorrento section, to increase the operating
capacity to one train every 12 minutes. The works will be carried out at night
to minimise the impact on users.

> We are proud to contribute to this railway modernisation programme in Italy.
> The Campania lines are essential to the economy and to travel in the
> Neapolitan region, where almost one million people live. It also demonstrates
> that our combined expertise within SYSTRA Italy is complementary and perfectly
> meets the expectations of our clients and the market.

### SYSTRA continues to support Neapolitan railways

SYSTRA is a long-standing player in the modernisation of the railways in Italy.
Our teams are currently carrying out studies and monitoring the construction of
the Naples – Cancello and Frasso Telesino – Vitulano sections of the Naples –
Bari high-speed line. This is a logical continuation for our Group, which had
already participated in the studies for the creation of a high-speed line
between Milan and Naples in the early 1990s.
