The assignment is part of the Multiconsult contract with the Norwegian Railway Directorate, which includes all railway technical disciplines.

Suppliers for National Implementation of ERTMS have been selected

Bane NOR has chosen Thales as supplier of TMS, Alstom as supplier of onboard equipment and Siemens as supplier of trackside.

After seven years of extensive cooperation with Bombardier Transportation on the ERTMS Experience Line Østfoldbanen Østre lin (ØØL) and 2 years of participation in Bombardier’s tender team for tenders for National Implementation of ERTMS, it did not go our way this time.

We congratulate Thales, Alstom and Siemens with the new big assignments and look forward to opportunities this can also provide for ProRail AS in the future!

The picture was taken from the driver’s room on the 69-set which was a test train at ØØL and shows the latest green light at Rakkestad before the old fuse system was turned off and demolished before the commissioning of the ERTMS plant on the stretch.
