Azvi has completed the renewal of 41.2 km of track on the Calañas–Peguerillas section of the Zafra–Huelva line, a project that is set to improve the reliability and performance of a strategically important railway for the province of Huelva.
The main works carried out include:
- Comprehensive renewal of the main line and passing loop superstructure at Calañas and Gibraleón stations.
- Installation of new rails, sleepers and ballast, replacement of turnouts and the removal of disused tracks.
- Reinforcement of cuttings and embankments, drainage improvements and repair of four bridges.
- Complementary works, including ballast-retaining walls, urban and anti-vandal fencing, and replacement of level crossings.
With a €30.8 million budget, the works were carried out along 41.2 km, across the municipalities of Calañas, Trigueros and Gibraleón, in the province of Huelva.
With the original alignment kept virtually unchanged, this project significantly improves railway speed, reliability and service quality, contributing to a more efficient, safer and more sustainable railway network.
Today, we are revisiting this video showcasing some of the works carried out on this section.
