Metro Trains Melbourne (MTM) and Bombardier Transportation have signed a contract for maintenance services for Bombardier’s rail control solution being delivered for Melbourne’s new Metro Tunnel Project. The duration of the contract is 10 years with an option for five additional years. The contract is valued at approximately 77 million AUD (USD 60 million).
In December 2017, Bombardier, as part of the Rail Systems Alliance (RSA), won the contract to install its high-capacity rail control solution for the Metro Tunnel Project in Melbourne. Bombardier will provide its full-service package from its OPTIFLO rail control services solution including the advanced EBI Tool Maintenance and Diagnostics Centre (MDC), which provides intelligent data analysis and predictive functionalities to prevent failures.
“This order reflects our ongoing commitment to improving urban mobility across Melbourne. Bombardier’s range of signalling services will enhance rail network performance and greatly improve the passenger experience. We are excited to be delivering this project to Victorians,” Andrew Dudgeon, Managing Director of Bombardier Transportation Australia, said.
