For this assignment, SYSTRA will design these documents for the replacement of
signalling systems with ERTMS\* for the control areas Kävlinge, Eslöv, Lund and
Arlöv.

The assignment also includes permit management and the production of
administrative documents.

It is planned that traffic under ERTMS signalling will take place from 2030 for
the areas around Lund and Eslöv, and from 2032 for the areas around Kävlinge and
Arlöv.

### A range of technologies

This project involves Track, Electricity, Signal, Telecommunications and Ducting
with an emphasis on signalling, but also areas such as ground, environment,
dewatering, geotechnics, measurement, land negotiation and roads.

Furthermore, the design will be carried out in line with the requirements for
BIM within ERTMS.

### SYSTRA working to facilitate Swedish rail travel

ERTMS aims to simplify cross-border travel and transport within Europe and this
assignment forms part of Trafikverket’s ’Program ERTMS’ for the development of
the system and its implementation across Sweden.

SYSTRA has worked since 2016 on the planning stages for the introduction of
ERTMS of several sections of railway in Sweden on the Västra stambanan (Western
Main Line), Södra stambanan (Southern Main Line), Malmbanan (Iron Ore Line and
Kustbanan (Coastal Line).

\*European Rail Traffic Management System, designed to harmonise signalling
across the continent.
