Rail traffic on FERROVIENORD’s Busto Arsizio – Malpensa Airport Terminal 2 line will be suspended between Malpensa Airport Terminal 1 station and Malpensa Airport Terminal 2 station on Monday, 12 January and Tuesday, 13 January, and along the entire route from Busto Arsizio to Malpensa Airport Terminal 2 from Wednesday, 14 January to Saturday, 17 January. The temporary suspension of the service, which will resume normal operations on Sunday, 18 January, is necessary to commission the Computer-Based Multi-Station Interlocking System (ACC-M) on the Malpensa T1–Gallarate railway line. On Monday, 12 January and Tuesday, 13 January, passengers will be able to travel between Malpensa T1 and Malpensa T2 using SEA Milan Airports’ shuttle service. From Wednesday, 14 January to Saturday, 17 January, Trenord will provide a replacement bus service between Busto Arsizio Nord and Malpensa T2. Details are available through the company’s communication channels (the trenord.it website and app).
THE NEW ACC-M SYSTEM – The new Computer-Based Multi-Station Interlocking System (ACC-M) is designed to centralise, at the central control centre and the operator workstations in Busto Arsizio, all the functions and operating logic of the systems controlled along the section between Malpensa Airport Terminal 1 station and Gallarate station (which is excluded, as it falls under RFI’s responsibility). These systems include train detection systems, points, signals and train protection systems. This more advanced and reliable technology enables better traffic management.
FUNDING – The project is funded by Regione Lombardia, which has allocated €1,442,876.
