  The LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) project at CERN aims at delivering high brightness beams required by the LHC in the high-luminosity LHC (HLLHC) era. The project comprises a new H Linac (Linac4) as well as a massive upgrade of the PS Booster, PS and SPS synchrotrons. This paper gives an update of the activities regarding the proton injector chain. We present the target beam parameters, a brief status of the upgrade work per machine and the outcome of the recent reviews. The planning for the implementation of the hardware upgrades and the re-commissioning of the complex will also be discussed.

  Linac4, CERN's new H injector Linac uses PI-Mode Structures (PIMS) for the energy range between 103 and 160 MeV. 180 copper elements for 12 PIMS cavities have been fabricated in a collaboration between CERN, NCBJ and FZJ from 2011 to 2016. The cavities have been assembled, RF tuned and validated at CERN. This paper reports on the results as well as the experience with construction, installation, RF conditioning and first operation with beam.
