In the 1990s, Lengiprotrans developed a project for the building of the Unified Dispatch Control Center (EDCU) of the Oktyabrskaya Railway in St. Petersburg. EDTSU is intended to accommodate dispatching personnel and a set of technical means associated with the operational management of transportation on the Oktyabrskaya railway.
The construction of the EDCU building became necessary to organize the receipt of operational and reliable information about the movement of trains, as well as to create modern working conditions for the dispatching personnel.
The implementation of the project contributed to changes that led to the achievement of positive economic results:
• cost reduction by increasing the level of management of the transportation process;
• saving energy resources required for the operation of the building due to the construction of a modern automated roof-top boiler house operating on gas;
• heat recovery from ventilation emissions by means of a heat recovery system.
The building area was 1100 sq. m.
The architectural solution of the building facades was awarded the second place at the international exhibition "Batimat - 2000" in St. Petersburg.
