Siemens Mobility has secured contracts to provide various systems for the HS2 high-speed rail project in the UK. The company will design, manufacture, and install a European Train Control System (ETCS) Level 2 signalling system, which will eliminate traditional signals and provide digital signalling to train drivers. Siemens Mobility will also provide an Engineering Management System, which will enable real-time control and monitoring of railway equipment. Additionally, the company will design and install high-voltage power supply systems, operational telecommunications and security systems, and a stations management system framework.
The contracts are worth millions of pounds and will provide technical support services for at least 15 years. Siemens Mobility has a long history in the UK, employing around 5,500 people across 30 sites. The company is committed to supporting local economies and driving innovation, sustainability, and efficiency in the transportation network. The HS2 project will transform rail travel in Britain, connecting London to Birmingham and other UK cities, and Siemens Mobility is proud to be a part of it.
