The DigiMar project, focused on enhancing navigational safety through innovative learning tools, is on track with its planned schedule. This July, the project celebrated a significant milestone with its first international meeting, where the project's progress was discussed.

One of Fintraffic’s basic tasks in rail traffic management is to ensure safe and smooth rail traffic on Finnish railways. The almost three-year-old Situation Coordinator service plays an important role in succeeding in this task. The service allows the railway network to deal with disruptions more quickly, safely and efficiently, as all essential information is transmitted from one party to another in a transparent manner. Since the beginning of 2024, the service has been produced under the partnership agreement between the Finnish Transport Infrastructure Agency and Fintraffic Railway. What does the change mean in practice?

Twenty new rail traffic controllers graduated at Fintraffic this summer. Each of them has undergone a training period of about six months, including an induction period, a theoretical learning period, a simulation phase and a job orientation phase.

Fintraffic's Port Activity application helps maritime logistics actors and ports to develop their operations in a more efficient direction through real-time vessel and port information.

How to achieve the maximum social benefit from Digirail, and what types of actions or decisions are required? Among other things, these questions will be addressed and resolved by the new Digirail development and monitoring group.

The current system protecting the passage of trains is nearing the end of its life cycle, and the plan in the Digirail project is to renew the system on the entire Finnish railway network. Fintraffic Railway Ltd. and Siemens Mobility have signed contract on supplying a Centralised Safety System on Digirail’s first commercial track section on the Lielahti-Rauma/Pori track line. Thanks to the agreement, Digirail will now be moving towards concreteness.
