Rail Systems Investments
- Signals and communications, including replacement and upgrade of Metro's signaling system and a project that replaces Metro's outdated internal communication and public safety radio systems.
- Propulsion system maintenance and upgrades, including reliability improvements for the electrical system that powers the Metrorail system.
Here are a few featured projects:
New Advanced Sgnaling System
Metro's train control signal system is over 40 years old, obsolete, and unreliable. The replacement and upgrade of this vital system is among Metro's state of good repair priorities. Metro is currently working to identify and plan for the implementation of automated signaling system technology.
Underground Cellular & Radio Project
This project replaces Metro's outdated internal communication and public safety radio systems. This includes the public safety radio system, the Metro area radio system, and cellular services throughout the system, allowing customers to utilize cellular service while underground.
