SEITT (State Land Transport Infrastructure Company, S.M.E., S.A.) is a Spanish public entity, member of the Patrimonio Group and supervised by the General Secretariat of Infrastructure. Founded in 2005, it is responsible for the projection, conservation, operation and promotion of state-owned transport infrastructures, and of the toll highways rescued by the State.
Reinforcement of Safety and Optimization of Circulation
Acisa, within the framework of the UTE with Aldesa, carried out the project “Adaptation to the minimum safety requirements of the tunnels between PK 17+500 and PK 55+000 on the M-50, according to Directive 2004/54/CE and RD 635/2006”, developed by SEITT, for the improvement of the highway tunnels. This included the modernization of the Perales del Río tunnel near Getafe, a tunnel of great importance that registers an average traffic of eighty thousand vehicles per day.
Being responsible for reinforcing integral safety and optimizing traffic circulation conditions, the project consisted of the renovation and updating of the tunnel’s safety and control systems according to Royal Decree 635/2006. The solution chosen was the homogeneous integration of all the infrastructure’s systems into a single control center.
