Dwyer, Train Control Systems EngineerCityRail Signal Renewal and Modernisation ProgrammePART C - SYSTEMS INTERFACE AND GATEWAYSCityRail serves Sydney and a population of 4.6 million people. The CityRail network extends over 150 km from Sydney to the North, South and West. It is intended that this network be controlled from one Control Centre for all Operations and Infrastructure functions. A two step strategy has been adopted to develop the engineering and organisational changes required for the final Control Centre. The CityRail Control Centre at Central will consolidate the operations of signal boxes at Sydney, Strathfield, Sydenham, North Sydney, Hurstville, East Hills, Glenfield, Campbelltown, Liverpool, Sefton, Bankstown, Canterbury, Rhodes, Epping and Thornleigh. Operations Controllers, Mechanical Defects Officers and Passenger Information Officers will also be included in the Control Room. The Control Centre will control over 2,000 train movements daily. The Control Centre will cover 35 signal interlockings and 11 4 stations. The signalling includes 1,900 signals, 400 points and 2,900 track circuits. |
