As part of the project to build the new Cordoba–Malaga HST line, the Building, Maintenance and Operations department of the ADIF passenger-stations unit is renovating Malaga station in order to be able to respond appropriately to future demand on the line.

The building of a new station has been considered, complete with a 1000-space underground car park, Vialia centre and a hotel.

The new Malaga station complex will include the Vialia centre, covering all the area comprising the platform heads and surrounding streets. This Vialia area includes areas for rail functions, from the car-park level to the passenger centres, departures, VIP room, commuter area and associated toilet facilities, together with the multiple-services pavilions and room for authorities.

SICE will implement the passenger-information system for this project, including:

• Remote indicator panels
• Information displays
• PA system
• Clocks and clock-synchronisation system
• Passenger-service intercom system

All these systems will be integrated under a software platform that will allow them to function automatically by being connected to timing systems, managing any deviations in arrival and departure times and communicating the information to passengers.

A single operator will be able to manage all the information systems using a single intuitive, user-friendly application.
