2022 – Alstom, a member of the
TMT Consortium (TLV Metropolitan Tramway Ltd.) and its partners
Electra Ltd. & Dan Transportation, have been awarded a contract
to design, build, maintain, and finance the Tel Aviv Metropolitan
LRT Green line by Metropolitan Mass Transit System Ltd (NTA). The
project is valued at 2.6 billion euro and Alstom’s share valued at
€858 million euro1.
Alstom’s responsibility includes the design,
engineering, supply, integration, testing and commissioning of the
railway system including tracks, electrification, power supply
(Hesop, energy saving system), signaling, communication system and
the supply of 98 Citadis XO5 trams. Electra will manage the design
and construction of the civil works. Maintenance of the system will
be performed by a joint venture composed of Dan Transportation,
Electra and Alstom.
“We are excited and grateful for the opportunity
to support NTA in the development of the city’s urban network and
serve hundreds of thousands of residents every day. We believe
access to transport is an essential factor to promote and enhance
social and economic progress. Everyone benefits from better access
to public transport, reduced commute times, less congestion and
lower carbon emissions. Alstom and our partners Dan Transportation
and Electra Ltd., believe this project will contribute to the
growth of the rail ecosystem in the country and support the
creation of hundreds of new jobs,” said Eran Cohen, Managing
Director Alstom Israel.
This project is part of a greater Transport
Investment plan by Israel to address the country’s growing mobility
demand. To reduce congestion in Tel Aviv and support its 4,000,000
inhabitants, two additional tramways will be introduced (Green and
Purple). The Green line is the longer of the two extending for over
39km and 62 stations, of which 4 will be underground. The line will
run from north to south of the city, connecting Holon and Rishon
Lezion with the centre of Tel Aviv, Tel Aviv University, the
industrial and business area in western Herzliya and the business
area in Kiryat Atidim. The Green line will have state of the art
trams and expected to move 76 million passengers in 2030. The trams
will operate in double units, 34 meters each with full low floor.
The Citadis Xo5 trams will be designed and manufactured in Alstom’s
centre of development for Citadis trams in La Rochelle. The other
French sites involved are Le Creusot, for the bogies, Ornans for
motors, Villeurbanne, for the passenger information systems.
Additionally, Alstom’s Fez facility in Morocco will provide
harnesses and electrical cabinets and the Belgian site in Charleroi
will provide the electronics power with a new Integrated Traction
and Auxiliary Converter in 1500 v and the Hesop energy saving
system.
Alstom is a leader in the tram and light rail
market with 26 LRV lines in 13 countries delivered as integrated
systems, with 3,000 Citadis trams & LRVs ordered by more than
60 cities in 20 countries; 1 in 4 low-floor trams in services in
the world have been manufactured by Alstom.
Alstom’s presence in Israel dates back 30 years
as a trusted supplier and service provider to Israel Railways
(ISR). Recently, ISR extended Alstom’s maintenance contract, the
only outsourced maintenance contract in the country’s railway
sector which began in 2014. Furthermore, our collaboration with ISR
has been expanded further with the award of two contracts for
electrification infrastructure maintenance, and for the
design-build of an ETCS L2 onboard system. Alstom’s recent
acquisition of Bombardier has expanded our presence in Israel,
through the supply of double deck coaches and Traxx
e-locomotives.
