# In Catalonia, the Camp de Tarragona tramway project will be carried out with SYSTRA

Located in southern Catalonia, Camp de Tarragona is one of the region’s major
urban and tourist areas. The future tramway will improve connections between
several key local hubs and provide a new sustainable mobility solution. Its
first phase, approximately 14 km long, will connect Cambrils Centre to Vila-seca
Estació, via Salou, notably reusing part of the former coastal railway corridor.

The first contract, carried out in consortium with TYPSA, covers construction
management. SYSTRA will contribute to supervising the proper execution of the
works, monitoring the schedule, coordinating with ADIF, municipalities and
utility companies, and overseeing civil, railway and tramway works through
testing and final validation.

The second contract, carried out in consortium with META, part of Quadrante,
concerns Systems Integration Technical Assistance. This assignment aims to
ensure that all tramway subsystems, including infrastructure, power, signalling,
telecommunications, passenger equipment, safety and operations, work together
coherently ahead of commercial service.

_Conceptual view of the future station Països Catalans de Vila – seca_

The project involves significant technical and urban complexity. The works will
be delivered in a constrained environment, with major utility diversions,
interventions beneath the AP-7 motorway and existing railway lines, and the
implementation of a full tramway system: slab track, electrification, overhead
contact line, signalling, supervision, passenger information and communications.

These new contracts build on SYSTRA Ardanuy’s previous involvement in the
project, having carried out the preliminary studies between 2016 and 2018, when
the scheme was still being developed as a tram-train before evolving into a full
tramway system.
