2Advanced Train Management System Current technologies only offer short term solutions Need to look beyond existing solutions to meet future market and operational needs Issues Issues Volume growth is capacity-constrained on east coast corridors Future investment decisions will need to address network capacity constraints more widely Value-add opportunities will become essentials Future Need Near term need to replace life expired safeworking systems Current thinking tends to be like-with- like Reliable saleable capacity is already limited Safety and value-add opportunities need to be exploited Existing Need Life-expired signalling systems are a key national investment issue 1 1: ATC Interstate Network Audit 2001

3Advanced Train Management System Present situation ARTC proposes to implement the Advanced Train Management System over its network ARTC has conducted Expressions of Interest and called Tenders ARTC has selected a preferred supplier – Lockheed Martin, as ATMS system integrator, supported by various sub-contractors. Preparatory work is being done, with objective of Project Agreement early in 2004.

16Advanced Train Management System Accreditation via a Safety Case Approach Safety Cases need to provide sufficient specific information to describe the nature and extent of the operation, and to demonstrate that an ‘Equivalent Level of Safety’ is achievable. The Safety Case must: –identified the measures which need to be taken to control risks to safety of network users and the public, –show that systems are in place to ensure that those measures will be implemented and maintained; and –Demonstrate that an effective safety management system to ensure effective control over operations and during contingencies in a manner that complies with all relevant regulatory requirements.
