Infrastructure

The volume of traffic in the Netherlands is unimaginable. Fortunately, private and goods transport is well organised. This is important for commuters, production, transport and logistics. But high volumes of traffic bring risks and one of them is fire. Extra attention is given to fire safety at certain points, and QUALM was involved.

Where do we work?

  • ProRail’s shunting yard in Roosendaal and Kijfhoek.
  • Along the A15 motorway.
  • The Amsterdam Schiphol Airport train tunnel.
  • The Vlake tunnel.

Prevention is better than cure

Some places are more vulnerable to fire, not because the risks are higher, but because their locations are more difficult to reach. Examples include tunnels, railway tunnels and multi-storey car parks. Prevention is better than cure

In other situations, fire safety is needed for high frequency goods transport.

Traffic arteries

The fire department needs a water supply should a fire outbreak in a traffic accident. QUALM lays fire water supply mains with strategically located valves and fire hydrants next to motorways. We are indispensable in enabling the fire department to act properly and without problems in emergencies. We also do this on shunting yards. For example, we laid the fire hydrant mains on ProRail’s shunting yard in Kijfhoek.
