State-of-the-art track system solution, based on Corkelast® EBS blocks and Trackelast® mats, offering optimal noise & vibration control especially for the critical city areas.
In 2022, the newly built western section of MetroLine2 in Warsaw has been taken into operation, including two new stations Bemowo and Ulrychów. Mid-2022 the official opening took place at the Bemowo station, by Mayor of Warsaw Rafał Trzaskowski and by EU Commissioner Elisa Ferreira.
edilon)(sedra are proud to have contributed to this project, supporting the contractor Gülermak. edilon)(sedra supplied a state-of-the-art track system solution, based on Corkelast® EBS blocks and Trackelast® mats, offering optimal noise & vibration control especially for the critical city areas.
High impact loads
For project Line 2, more than 30 km of edilon)(sedra Corkelast® EBS track has been installed, including EBS crossroads and double track connections and 520 m of Corkelast® ERS (Embedded Rail System) track. The Polish Railways PKP have implemented EBS for their turnout bearers too. Based on the detailed switch design edilon)(sedra Application & Engineering designed the most optimum bearer configuration to provide the right support for the high impact loads in these locations.
The chosen EBS system is well known for its excellent reduction of dynamic loads, low vibrations emissions and its optimal electrical insulation. A very important aspect in tunnels which are often damp and wet.
The challenge
Installing more than 30 km of metro track, including turnout bearers, crossroads and double track connections, meeting strict requirements for durability and vibration control.
The solution
edilon)(sedra Corkelast® EBS (Embedded Block System).
The result
A virtually maintenance-free new metro line, ready to transport thousands of passengers for many years to come.
