The consortium formed by FCC Construcción and the local com - pany ROK Construction Ltd, have been winners of the con - tract for the design and construc - tion of the new hospital in Jersey (United Kingdom). FCC Construcción and Convensa have started the con - creting works of the East tunnel of the Pajares tunnels (Asturias). With the beginning of these works, the last and most complex phase of the concreting of the slab track is being carried out. Given the novelty of the type of mixed sleepers for triple-wire on concrete (with twice the volume and weight of the usual ones) and the com - plexity of the logistics inside the tunnel, the team that executes and manages the work has been designing during the last months the procedures, work methods and installations necessary for the correct execution with the maximum quality and safety standards, as well as to obtain the maximum possible performance. The Siemens-FCC Industrial consortium has won the contract for the work and maintenance of the signaling, fixed tele - communications and ERTMS Level 2 of the Rodalies de Barcelona lines, in the section: Manresa-Barcelona Sants-Sant Vicenç de Calders. The contract has a six-year execution and maintenance pe - riod and a budget of almost 75 million euros.
