Users' of the service of Rodalias of Renfe thousands
in Barcelona and of the Regional of Catalunya they have been affected this
morning by a mishap in the Center of Control of Centralized Traffic of the
Estació of França that has paralyzed the circulation of trains between the 6.25
and the 7.50 hours, they have informed the companies Renfe and Adif. The only
line that had survived of the chaos had been that of the AVE that has own roads
and he has been able to circulate without problems.
The president of Adif, Gonzalo Ferre that has accused
of the chaos lived to the company Schneider Electric, responsible for the
system of computer software of the Center of Control of Centralized Traffic
(CCTC) of Adif in Barcelona to that yesterday you reset the system, it has
assured that the situation has already been normalized, in spite of the fact
that the delays have crawled approximately during several hours until the 14
hours one cannot say that it has been normalized the schedules.
The director of Rodalies of Cataluanya, Félix Martin,
it has calculated in about 80.000 the affected travelers and it has pointed out
that the users will have facilities to claim the amount of their notes. He/she
has also apologized for the caused nuisances: "Excuses to people, because
we have not been to the height of their trust" now then the delays to the
work and the labor des adjusts that have taken place this nobody it doesn't
value it.
The rail incidences in the lines of Rodalies of Barcelona
are usually habitual and they have caused the opening of numerous files on the
part of the Generalitat. This way, the past May 5 the 'conseller' of Territori
Santi Vila, ordered to open a file to the company Renfe for the administration
of a rail incidence that that day affected the circulation of trains for the
lines R3 and R4 and he forced to transfer passengers from a train to
another.
Soon after a train AVE coming from Marseilles (France)
and going to Madrid he has been damaged with 200 passengers when it went by the
tunnel of Sants of Barcelona, The passengers have remained caught during almost
two hour-from 12:30 o'clock until the 14:15 hours, approximately -, to the
entrance of the station of Sants, in Barcelona.
The train has had a mechanical mishap and, almost two
hours later, it has been made to descend to the passengers to the roads and to
walk about 400 meters for the tunnel to the station. In a first moment, Renfe
had informed that another train would be taken to the place in which the AVE
was and it would be transferred the passengers with gangplanks, but, finally,
it has been considered that they were near the station to be able to arrive
walking.
The passengers have arrived late to Sants with two
hours on the foreseen schedule and, now, among 60 and 70 people that had
foreseen to continue their trip to Madrid they have been in other trains AVE,
especially in those of 15:00 o'clock and the 15:25 hours, they have specified
the same sources. This mishap is not related with the failure that has taken
place in the center of control of centralized traffic of Adif in Barcelona at
first hours of today and that it has affected to about 200 trains and about
80.000 passengers. Civil protection of the Generalitat has activated the pre alert
of the plan of emergencies in travelers' transport for railroad of Catalonia
due to this mechanical mishap.
The Generalitat has requested to Renfe that informs
the users, and he has requested to Railroads of the Generalitat (FGC) and
intercity buses that reinforce its service insofar as possible. Also, they have
claimed a meeting with Renfe, although he has explained that they won't open
him an informative file because they already know the reasons of the incidence,
and because in this case it is a problem of Adif.
Already as if they wanted to be added to the party
this afternoon The lines 9 and 10 of the Underground of Barcelona they are
completely paralyzed from the 15:09 hours of this Thursday for a failure in the
system of control of traffic of this transport, they have informed sources of
Transports Subways of Barcelona (TMB).
Some 300 people should have been evacuated of seven
meter trains that circulated for both lines of the meter from Barcelona in the
moment in that it has failed the system of traffic control, ATS. The users
should have abandoned the trains for the emergency exits and to already walk
for the tunnels of the Underground for itineraries paymasters for these cases,
they have indicated the same sources.
A person should have been assisted by the medical
services by an attack of nerves, a spokesman of Transports has specified
personal Metropolitans. El of Underground of Barcelona he works in the
resolution of this mishap together with technicians of the company Siemens, TMB
informs in an official statement. Due to this mishap, TMB has enabled
alternative buses to the itinerary of these two lines that you/they go in
address to Dog Zam (Santa Coloma of Gramenet) and Gorg (Badalona), and it also
recommends the alternative use of the Line 1 to arrive to Fund and the Line 2
to go until Gorg.
At the moment, the origin of the failure is ignored in
the system of control of traffic of the Underground from Barcelona and also how
much it will take in being solved. Too many chances two big mishaps of computer
type smell to hacker
that is to say they are not casual but provoked and that of the AVE can be
casual although it is curious that it has served as bridge between that of the
morning of RENFE and that of the afternoon of Transports Subways, these things
in eves of local elections are not anything opportune to tranquilize to the
society.
