Iryo calls for a review of railway safety protocols following the Urda accident

Iryo has requested a review of railway safety protocols following the Urda accident, advocating for a speed limit of 40 km/h under certain conditions. The company aligns with the Spanish Machinists Union's demands for changes in operational regulations after the incident that resulted in 69 fatalities. They emphasize the need to reassess circulation conditions when the LZB safety system fails, particularly when trains operate under the BSL system. Iryo's letter to the Railway Safety Agency highlights the importance of preventing trains from resuming normal speed if another train is present in the same section. Renfe is also developing guidelines for its drivers to avoid normal operations under similar circumstances.
