For this ADIF project, the actions carried out were aimed at halting and correcting the evolution of the defined processes, increasing the safety threshold against damage caused by them and facilitating conservation and cleaning work for ADIF maintenance personnel, facilitating access and, therefore, making it easier to clean the facilities.
Taking into account the limitations imposed by access and rail traffic, a series of general recommendations were made when carrying out the work:
In the range of correction and improvement of the current section, the actions to be carried out were grouped into the following types:
Adequacy, sanitation and cleaning: actions were considered for the adequacy of the project area prior to the execution of the works, in such a way as to obtain the aforementioned objectives.
Containment: It was considered that the most effective way to eliminate the risks derived from falls and landslides is to prevent them from occurring, as previously arranged, by placing flexible meshes reinforced with horizontal cables or cable nets, tensioned at their ends and anchored in a grid of greater intensity than the present one. Prior to the start of these actions and once the reclamation works have been completed, the D.O. will check the state of the surface of the slopes and will redefine the actions for the installation of the containment measures.
