Ahead of the entry into service of the East European TGV, in
June 2007, and faced with the need to manage an average of
1,000 trains per day, Strasbourg station felt itself compelled
to abandon electromechanical technology and equip itself with a
modern, high-performance interlocking machine capable of
handling the increased traffic flows.

Developed as part of a contract worth around 70 million euros,
awarded to Alstom by RFF in March 2001, the Strasbourg station
interlocking machine forms part of a programme of signalling
system renovation covering 14 stations, of which four are
already in service. Four others, adjoining the East European
high-speed line will come into operation over the next few
months.
