The interlocking is a command centre defined as the "brain" of the station. It collects information on the state of the network and controls switches and track signals accordingly.

Their work enables trains to run according to a set timetable in complete safety. 

Built in 1996, the interlocking at Morges station is reaching the end of its service life (signals, beacons, etc.). In addition, it is currently located under the station building, which restricts the possibility of developing the SBB rail infrastructure. 

The work involves modernising all the components of the interlocking and installing them in a new building, away from the tracks. It also involves equipping it with more modern technology capable of meeting future needs (Denges-Morges3rd track, Morges-Perroy tunnel, etc.). 

This new order centre will enable :

• accommodate future rail infrastructure (Denges-Morges3rd track, Morges-Perroy tunnel, etc.) without difficulty 
• 2-minute train spacing 
• increasing train capacity within the perimeter (5km). 

This is the 2nd stage in the modernisation of the rail facilities at Morges, following the entry into service of platform 1 (December 2023), and prior to the creation of a3rd Morges-Denges track and the modernisation of the station platforms and their accesses (excluding platform 1).
