Adif has launched the tender for the third subphase of the project for the comprehensive remodeling of the Madrid-Vicálvaro freight terminal for 38.3 million euros and an execution period of 14 months.
In this phase, it is planned to execute an intermodal bundle of four passing tracks with the headers both to the north and to the south. This area includes a concrete slab for the regulation and storage of Intermodal Transport Units (UTI), managed by three automated gantry cranes (A-RMG), whose supply has already been tendered for 18.9 million euros.
This intermodal module will be able to handle 740-meter trains, with a handling capacity of 150,000 UTI per year and storage under a gantry of 2,500 TEU (unit load of a standard 20-foot container).
The contract includes the development and roads of the new intermodal zone, establishing a circuit for access, loading and unloading of trucks, access controls and parking for heavy and light vehicles.
Vehicle access to the terminal in a provisional first stage will be from the M-214 highway, where a traffic distribution roundabout will be built for this purpose.
With this contract, Adif advances in the comprehensive remodeling of the Madrid-Vicálvaro terminal, a project in which it will invest more than 300 million euros.
Adif has informed that the works of the second subphase are currently being carried out and that the actions of the first subphase have already finished.
The entity has also commented that when the first phase of the project is fully completed, the logistics node will have 18 tracks for the treatment of 740-meter trains.
The Madrid-Vicálvaro terminal is located at a strategic point on the logistics map of Spain that articulates the merchandise distribution network in the country, serving as a connection between the Mediterranean and Atlantic corridors, which gives it great potential.
The terminal is part of the strategic network of intermodal and logistics terminals that also includes Fuente de San Luis in Valencia, La Llagosta and Can Tunis (Barcelona), Júndiz (Álava), Valladolid, Majarabique (Sevilla) and Plaza (Zaragoza).
Adif has reported that comprehensive remodeling actions will be carried out at these facilities in order to have great capacity and connections to the main road networks and other infrastructures, such as ports and airports.
