Upgrading existing control systems to meet FRA requirements.
Upgrading existing control systems to meet FRA requirements.
This project focused on upgrading the existing train control system on UTA's network. MRS was responsible for designing, furnishing, installing, and commissioning the upgraded overlay Enhanced Automatic Train Control (E-ATC) system.
Implementing E-ATC involved modifying the existing wayside and carborne equipment to meet the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) requirements for Positive Train Control (PTC). These modifications addressed Temporary Speed Restrictions, Work Zone Limits, and Mandatory Directives, ensuring enhanced safety and compliance across the UTA system.
