ERTMS - Engineering Guidelines
The design of new ERTMS signalling systems on the Norwegian railway network should follow given principles. You can find more information about this here.
The aim of the principles is to ensure standardised design of the new signalling system, in order to achieve cost-effectiveness and efficient use of resources in the design process.
The design of ERTMS should follow the principles given in the document, and any deviating solutions should be assessed with regard to whether they support the following:
- Provide sufficient capacity (according to the existing and future timetable plans)
- Provide robustness to the timetable
- Uniform operational conditions (as far as is practically possible)
- Resource efficiency with respect to lifecycle costs (do not build more than the need dictates)
