This project, commissioned by the state organization SŽ (Správa železnic) (spravazeleznic.cz) on the route between the border with Germany and the cities of Dolní Žleb, Kralupy and Vltavou, with a value of around 26 million euros, is another great success for Kontron Transportation in the Czech Republic. At the end of 2024, the company already received a 34 million euro order for the expansion of a GSM-R system in the Czech Republic between Hranice and the border with Slovakia. With the realization of these projects, a wide range of voice and data services required for daily rail operations will now be provided.
"This project is of great strategic importance for Kontron Transportation and strengthens our company's strong position as the primary general contractor and supplier for Správa železnic. Step by step, the railway network in the Czech Republic is being expanded to become one of the most modern in Europe," says Richard Neussl, Managing Director Kontron Transportation Group.
"Správa železnic has been a highly valued customer for many years, and we are very pleased to be able to contribute to the further modernization of rail transport in the Czech Republic," says Petr Vitek, CEO, Kontron Transportation s.r.o. Praha.
