Sarmiento railway infrastructure upgrades

Overview

The Sarmiento railway line in Argentina has undergone significant infrastructure improvements and modernization efforts.

Initial works focused on enhancing operational safety through signaling system upgrades, track renewals, and station maintenance. A key component included the replacement of the 40-year-old Haedo signaling control desk, which manages four tracks and connects to the San Martín and Roca lines. Other improvements were made to the Castelar substation electrical system, track layouts in San Antonio de Padua, and platform restorations in Ramos Mejía and Morón.

Following these interventions, service was expanded through the reopening of central platforms at the Ramos Mejía and Ciudadela stations, which had been inactive since 2017. These reconstructions included new stairs, access ramps, tactile flooring, lighting, and surveillance systems. The use of these central tracks increases the total number of available platforms to four, a move intended to optimize scheduling and improve safety by moving train traffic away from level crossings.
