The conventional network has a length of 11,471 km of Iberian gauge tracks, with a maximum speed of 200 km/h.
GPO was awarded with the Independent Safety Assessment for the upgrading of signaling and electrification systems for ADIF.

Subsequently, a safety assessment report is prepared for each of the subsystems to be included in the safety dossier, as well as a non-regression independent evaluation report of the modifications.
