Devices from Alstom ensure safety on Czech railways and meet TSI 2023 standards. Thus, Správa železnic boosts reliability of track equipment across its network.
Onvia Cab systems hold 80% of the ETCS market in Czechia and 75% in Europe. Because the manufacturer actively deploys train control technologies worldwide.
ETCS operates on Czech railway lines spanning 622 kilometers and keeps expanding. Yet new units strengthen safety oversight for MUV 75 machines during operations.
Alstom Reinforces European Leadership
The contract between Alstom and CZ LOKO solidifies both firms’ standing in railway tech markets. And Onvia Cab deliveries will start soon for machine integration.
MUV 75 machines feature cranes and tools for repairing Czech railway infrastructure efficiently. So, they offer Správa železnic versatile solutions with new ETCS systems.
The manufacturer leads in producing onboard units for European railways and advances technology. Because demand for train control systems grows steadily across the region.
Czech operator Správa železnic uses MUV 75 machines to maintain tracks and improve safety. And ETCS adoption speeds up the country’s railway network upgrade in 2025.
Firm CZ LOKO ramps up track machine production and partners with leaders like Alstom. And this collaboration enhances equipment quality for Czech railways in coming years.
ETCS technologies provide precise movement control and reduce accident risks on European railways. Because the manufacturer tailors devices to Správa železnic and other operators’ needs.
Partnership between firms opens new avenues for Czech and regional railway infrastructure growth. But Onvia Cab delivery timelines hinge on the company’s production capacity.
Upgrading MUV 75 machines with ETCS boosts Správa železnic’s operational efficiency significantly. Thus, Czech railways become safer and more reliable for passengers and freight.
