Spanish transportation technology developer and consultancy Indra has been responsible for implementing all the technology in Colombia’s new Túnel de Oriente; the longest road tunnel in Central and South America.
Regarded as one of the most important infrastructure projects in Colombia, the new tunnel is nearly 5.5 miles (9km) long and provides a key strategic link between Medellín and the José María Córdoba airport, in Rionegro.
Together with its local partner, Eléctricas de Medellín Ingeniería y Servicios SAS (Edemsa), Indra has commissioned two control centers: a main center and a backup center, from which all intelligent transport systems (ITS), safety systems and revenue collection systems will be monitored in an integrated manner.
The entire project has also benefited from Indra’s Mova Solutions portfolio, including the Mova Traffic, Mova Collect, Mova Protect and Mova Comms applications.The company has provided all the technology needed for the efficient operation and economic management of the Concesión Túnel Aburrá Oriente road corridor, which comprises a total of 15 miles (24km) of tunnels, roads, interchanges and bridges.
