Transport for London (TfL) announced that Brush Traction is the winner of a new contract for up to £6.5m (EUR8.8m) for refurbishing and fitting the train motors for the Piccadilly line.
The £6.5m contract will see the company working on trains for the Piccadilly line which sees around 200 million passenger journeys per year. The Piccadilly line will be the first to have the modern, air-cooled New Tube for London trains in service around 2022.
“Brush Traction is playing an important role in the modernisation of London’s transport network and is helping us to meet the unprecedented demand created by the city’s success and rapid population growth. Suppliers like them keep London working and growing and help us to support the national economy. We have invested more than £865m with suppliers across the Midlands over the past year and we are always interested in hearing from other suppliers across the UK to see how they could work with us,” London Underground’s Managing Director Nick Brown said.
