Digitalization of Norway's rail network

Norway has announced a new €3bn programme that will see its entire rail network re-signalled over the next decade. Also including the launch of a new training and testing centre, it marks one of the country’s largest digitalisation projects to date. As part of the ambitious project, all 336 existing signal boxes on the 4,200km network will be replaced with a single data centre. This centre, in turn, will house a set of electronic interlockings able to communicate with field equipment thanks to a 5,000km optic network.
