      Independant monitoring of signalling and train control tests

      The Confederation line extension project consists of two extensions, to the east and west of the existing line. The project is being carried out in several phases. Following the commissioning of phase 1 in September 2019, phase 2 will operate the same signalling systems (CBTC supplied by Thales).

      Our mission

      As part of this project, Ingerop has been commissioned to provide independent monitoring of signalling and train control tests.

      Ingerop’s mission is to :

      • Understand the performance requirements of the contract,
      • Study the technical solution implemented by Thalès,

          Gaspésie Railway (CFG) and Québec Central Railway (CFQC) are two ambitious rail infrastructure rehabilitation projects, aimed at restoring and modernizing strategic rail lines in the Gaspésie and Central Québec regions.

          The Gaspésie Railway is a mixed rail line, serving both freight and passenger traffic. Due to advanced obsolescence and extensive damage caused by successive storms, the line has been out of service since 2013. In order to breathe new life into this essential infrastructure, the Ministère des Transports du Québec made a commitment in 2017 to rehabilitate the entire network, with a view to relaunching its operation for economic and tourism uses.

          The Québec Central Railway, which linked various municipalities in Central Quebec, was heavily damaged by major flooding and has been out of service since 1994. In 2020, the Ministère des Transports du Québec launched a comprehensive network rehabilitation project to restore this strategic route.

           

          Our Mission

          Ingerop was mandated by the Ministère des Transports et de la Mobilité Durable du Québec to carry out the following assignments:

          Strategic advisor 

          • implementation strategy,
          • drafting of technical specifications,
          • technical advice on engineering structures,
          • cost estimates,
          • steering of studies
          • drafting calls for tender.

          Responsible for operational studies

          •  Operations analysis
          • Hourly graph modeling with input data
          • Analysis of project situations including freight and passenger traffic
          • Infrastructure modeling
          • Estimation of typical freight or passenger markets
          • Optimization of infra/MR/connection system
          • Integration of new assumptions,
          • Modeling of a stabilized timetable
          • Presentation of macro results for each project situation
          • Supply of timetable graphs,
          • Indication of the number of train paths per day and per category
          • Evaluation of freight and passenger capacities
          • Identification of requirements for crossing stations, freight sidings and signalling systems.

          Ingerop Canade’s work on this project also included operational and load-bearing studies to ensure that the planned siding and track equipment was suitable for the anticipated traffic and operating mode. In addition, Ingerio Canada was commissioned to propose a maintenance strategy including, among other things, inspections, work, necessary tools, intervention methods, human resources, and a high-level estimate of annual costs.

              The tramway network extension includes 15.2 kms of new tracks extending:

              • Line A up to Mérignac-Les-Pins and the western by-pass (3.1 km),
              • Line B up to the Alouette junction in Pessac (3.6 km) passing by the Haut-L’Evêque and Xavier Arnosan hospitals and the Alouette station,
              • Line B up to the Activity Pole of northern Bordeaux (1 km),
              • Line C towards the south up to Bègles (3.8 km) and towards the north up to the Bordeaux conference centre (3.7 km).

              The mission includes full engineering services (from design to work supervision).

              The extension towards Northern Bordeaux includes tramway crossing of the wet dock on a revolving bridge.

                  Abidjan Metro Line 1 is a surface train 37 km long spreading from North to South and crossing the Abidjan lagoon. The line will serve 20 new stations. 2 intermediate terminus stations will allow to operate the central section of the line with a double frequency.

                  Specificities

                  The layout uses a narrow urban corridor twinning with the freight SITARAIL line, which implied numerous retaining walls and overpasses.

                  The construction has been awarded to a consortium led by Bouygues TP under a PPP scheme.

                  The assignment consists in providing a layout study, then a Preliminary and a Detailed responding to the requirements of the Ministry of Transportation, and defining a bankable project for a PPP realization.

                  The program and the studies have been optimized to that purpose. For example, one intermediate step consisted in analyzing 3 various infrastructure scenarios, corresponding to 3 tariff scenarios and thus 3 passenger traffic scenarios.

                  Assignment

                  The full layout, civil works and stations were studied :

                  • Main track layout study, and its impact on SITARAIL infrastructures,
                  • Earthworks,
                  • Geotechnical studies,
                  • Hydraulic studies,
                  • Bridges : underpasses, overpasses, footbridges for public crossings and at stations,
                  • Stations (platforms, buildings, Civil works and systems integration).

                        Assistant project manager for the implementation of a BRT project in Martinique

                        Description

                        The Joint Union for Dedicated Lane Public Transport in Martinique and the Martinique Region have decided to implement a public transport system throughout the urban area of Fort-de-France.

                        Long of 13.9 km, the BRT line will include 18 stations, 2 hubs with park and ride facilities, and a maintenance workshop. At commissioning, the rolling stock fleet will consist of fourteen, 24 m long bi-articulated hybrid vehicles.

                        Assignment

                        • Diagnosis and audit of the project
                        • Assisting in cost control, budget monitoring, funding issues, including the Grand European Project
                        • Assisting in financial engineering and legal advising
                        • Assisting in deadline management
                        • Proposing the legal and financial set-up for the studies, work and operation contacts.
                        • Assisting in communication activities
                        • Advising on the selection of rolling stock, intermodal hubs and operating principles
                        • Technical assistance during design and construction phases up to the BRT commissioning: supervision of contractors, engineers and service providers, follow-up reports, technical expertise
                        • Assistance during the award of a Public-Private Partnership contract for the design, construction and maintenance: drafting the contract, tendering procedure, negotiation, preferred bidder award.
                        • PPP contract management up to commissioning

                        The BRT is inserted in an area where several public transport networks coexist without a common organizing authority (urban buses, intercity buses and taxis). Issues of urban integration and intermodal hubs are mostly complex.

                          Feasibility of lines 3 and 4 west and detailed design study of BRT CORE Line 3

                          Nairobi Metropolis (capital of Kenya, 4 million inhabitants, 8 predicted in 2045) experiences a rapid growth while suffering from heavy traffic jams and from a low-structured public transport supply.

                          To solve these issues, a BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) Network has been planned since 2014 by the Government of the Republic of Kenya.

                          The study focused on the lines 3 (27km) and 4 west (7km).

                          It included, during the first phase (2015-2016) an opportunity & feasibility study and during the second phase (2016-2019) a detailed design for a high-priority route of 12.5km: BRT Core Line 3.

                          Characteristics:

                          • High-capacity BRT concept (16 000 pphpd): operation with high frequency (1bus/45 seconds) and multi-docking bays platforms, overtaking lanes, traffic management at intersections with elevated structures at major crossings.
                          • 2 vehicles standard options considered: high-floor (~90cm) and low-floor (~35cm).
