On-going projects in Brazil
Alstom has modernised and adapted its Taubaté factory to be ready to manufacture trains for new projects starting in 2022. It will be more than 130 trains and more than 750 cars.
Line 6-Orange of the São Paulo Metro: Alstom has a contract with Linha Universidade (Linha Uni) Concessionaire, whose main partner is the Acciona Group, which will supply 22 six-car trains.
Lines 8 and 9 of the São Paulo Metropolitan Train Network: Alstom will supply 36 trains, with eight cars each, which will have doors and corridors that will offer excellent passenger exchange and freedom of movement, as well as reserved spaces for people with reduced mobility. The large windows and doors will provide a clear view of the outside, guaranteeing a smooth, safe and comfortable journey for passengers. The trains will also feature modern technologies: passenger counting, dynamic line maps, monitors and video surveillance, as well as fire detectors and fire extinguishers.
Phase 2 extension of Line 7 of the Taipei Metro (Taiwan): Supply of 16 Metropolis trains (4 cars) with Urbalis 400 Communication-Based Train Control (CBTC) signalling system, Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system and security doors on platforms.
