Basic Project Information
Project Title
High-Speed Train in Spain: Madrid-Barcelona-French frontier (Figueres)
Location
Spain
Purpose
To joint two main cities in Spain through high speed train. Safe, punctual and comfortable means
of transport. To improve connections with France. The last stage is currently being worked on, the
Barcelona-Figueres section, which links with the Figueres-Perpignan section (which has been in
service since December 2010). 6
Scope
To improve the connection between cities. Integrated with Trans-European Transport Network
(TEN-T)
Total Project Value
Total investment of nearly 9 billion euro (Madrid-Barcelona) 6
Project Status(i.e.. initiation, planning,
construction, operation, dismantling)
Finish date (Madrid-Barcelona): 02/2008
Expected finish date (Barcelona-Figueres): 2012
(Expected divergence 3 years)
Contractual Framework
(e.g. fixed price, cost-plus etc.)
Madrid-Barcelona: 6,611 million Euros (inaugurated on 20 February 2008
Barcelona-Figueres: 4,200 million de euros [22]
Relevant Physical Dimensions (e.g.
height, width, volume, length)
Line length: 664 km (Madrid-Barcelona)- 804 Km (M-B-Figueres)
Operating speed: The track is designed for speeds of up to 350 km/h in nearly 86% of the route,
although Renfe Operadora runs commercial services at 300 km/h.
International gauge, compatible signalling system, standard electrification
Minimum 7000 m radius bends on the general track
Ramps under 2.5% - Maximum 140 mm slope - Junctions suitable for 350 km/h 6

ADVANTAGES OF THE LINE [51]
This line allows communication between the two most densely populated urban areas of Spain (Madrid and
Barcelona) ​and Zaragoza and other cities such as Guadalajara, Calatayud, Lleida and Tarragona.
This infrastructure also extends its benefits to other cities to connect:
* In Madrid, the North-Northeast corridor (LAV Valladolid), South corridor (LAV Seville and Malaga) and runner
Levante (Valencia LAV).
* In Zaragoza with the high-speed and international gauge Zaragoza-Huesca
* In Camp de Tarragona and the Mediterranean Corridor.
* Also, thanks to the wide exchange facilities of Plasencia de Jalon, the benefits extend to La Rioja and Navarre.
Another unique feature of this line is its design for mixed passenger and freight (including the Port of Barcelona and
the connection to France), which implies the possibility of establishing new services to or from intermodal centers in
France and other European countries.
In addition to a significant reduction in travel times, this modern infrastructure provides a number of benefits
including:
* Citizens have a more integrated rail infrastructure, safe and sustainable
* A significant increase in capacity and regularity of rail traffic resulting from the technical specifications and design of
the line.
* Significant increase comfort by establishing optimal conditions of rolling and drawing
* Increased security by incorporating advanced technologies in control systems of rail traffic
* Security is enhanced by the fencing on both sides of the track and the absence of level crossings
* Removing barriers and improving urban permeability and potential for development of cities
ONLINE FEATURES [51]
It extends over 804 kilometers from Madrid to Figueres.
The layout allows traffic at speeds up to 350 km / h in almost 86% of the course, although it commercially exploits
Renfe Operator to 300 km / h.
INFRASTRUCTURE [51]
The construction parameters applied were very demanding to allow the development of maximum speeds of 350
kilometers per hour in commercial service and ensure the interoperability of the infrastructure according to EU rules:
* Tread international signaling system compatible, standard electrification
* Curves of minimum radius of 7000 m in the general pathway
* Ramps less than 2.5%
* Maximum depth 140 mm
* Deviations suitable for 350 km / h
The line has by-pass in Zaragoza, Lleida and Figueres so that not to penalize travel times of non-stop train in those
cities.
Furthermore, the Barcelona-Figueres section is designed for passenger traffic and also for the transport of certain
types of goods.

*By TEN-T funds of 10.6 million euro for the implementation of the ERTMS (European Rail Traffic Management
System) on the Barcelona-Figueras section.
The European Investment Bank (EIB) collaborates in the funding of this project. 6
The total cost of this line is €10.5 billion, with EU Cohesion Policy contributions amounting to about €3.4 billion.

Department of Regulation and Control Integrated traffic management: in the high-speed lines also has advanced traffic
management on the integration platform Davinci, a specified and owned by ADIF, which can integrate information from other
systems related to rail traffic, such as the Remote Power, communications, passenger information systems, remote control of
sensors. This is an Intelligent Transportation System that features incorporating the latest technologies. 45
The CRC concept integrates all the systems involved in the regulation of railway traffic, responding to the demands of high speed.
Thus, from these centers are regulated simultaneously signaling, electrification, communications systems, traveler information and
energy, among other things. Process integration is possible through the DaVinci system, considered one of the world's most
advanced in the regulation of railway traffic. This system, intellectual property of ADIF, get an overview of all subsystems into
which traffic management through a single platform, which optimizes the process considerably. The CRC direct and coordinate the
circulation in real time, following a defined transportation plan, meeting the safety and punctuality rates required, and allowing
immediate response to any incidents 47

(Expected divergence 3 years)
It is estimated that the AVE MadridBarcelona will cost more than six billion
euros. One Km of this line will cost
7.362.398,28 euros (initial estimation).
34
Seen 2002 investment was expected in
the line of 7,800 million euros 34
Total investment of nearly 9 billion euro (Madrid-Barcelona) 6
(a divergence of 3 billion euros related to the initial estimated
cost).
Estimated number of passengers:
Renfe provides transport 6.1 million
passengers with this service in your first
year of operation (2008). This figure is
almost double the 3.3 million
passengers in 2007 and earn about
three million new customers 35
Annual passenger traffic and year: 7 millions (2009)
There was much criticism during the construction of the MadridBarcelona line. A highly critical report by the consulting firm KPMG,
commissioned by ADIF (Administrador de Infraestructuras
Ferroviarias) at the behest of the Ministry for Public Works
(Ministerio de Fomento) on 23 June 2004, pointed to a lack of indepth studies and over-hasty execution of works as the most
important reasons for the problems that dogged construction of
the AVE line. For example, during the construction of the AVE
tunnel near Barcelona, a number of nearby buildings suffered
minor damage from a large sinkhole that appeared near a
commuter rail station, damaging one of its platforms.
Passengers: 2,337,913 (2008); 2.651.598 (2009); 2.574.920 (2010);

The Madrid–Barcelona–French Frontier route is one of the most relevant land links
