South Korea opens Sudokwon HSR with Alstom’s interlocking system

ktxThe South Korea Sudokwon high-speed line – for which Alstom supplied the interlocking system as well as the associated engineering services – started revenue service on December 9. Sudokwon high-speed line includes three stations, is 61.1 km long, 52.3 km of which are in tunnels, and directly links to the existing Seoul-Busan high-speed line.
Alstom, as part of a consortium led by LSIS, was awarded the contract by KRNA (Korea Rail Network Authority) in December 2014. The interlocking technology deployed on Sudokwon is the same as on the Seoul-Busan line, highlihasghting once again the confidence of the customer in Alstom’s technology that has allowed for safe and reliable routing of trains since 2004.
This project is executed by Alstom Transport S.A. (France) with support from Alstom UK, Alstom Belgium and Alstom Korea.
