SNCF and the Marseille-Ventimiglia Line
SIG4 Engineering is particularly pleased to contribute to the development of the safety case required for the new signaling system on the Marseille-Ventimiglia line.
This project involves removing the existing signaling system (Block Automatique Lumineux: BAL) and replacing it, with no possibility of reverting, with the European ETCS Level 2 signaling system. The functional and safety challenges are huge, with multiple stakeholders involved, and the safety approach has to be aligned with these high stakes. SNCF has entrusted SIG4 Engineering to contribute to the preliminary risk analyses, to frame the remaining safety studies to be carried out, and to promote the overall safety approach to the various certification bodies (Certifer, EPSF).
