Italferr-Hill International- ASTAD Engineering JV has won the management consultancy services contract for the Lusail Light Rail Tranzit project. The four-year contract has an estimated value to the joint venture of approximately QAR 151.6 million (USD 41.6 million).
The 38.5 km LRT system will have four lines, 25 stations at-grade and seven underground stations.
In April, Qatar Railways has unveiled the design of Lusail Tram. Its design concept is focused on the sea representing dhow pearl fishing and bringing in the calm, cool, elegant and tranquil elements of that medium to the design.
A consortium led by Alstom and QDVC, will deliver a fully integrated Lusail tramway system, including 28 Citadis trams, power supply equipment, signalling and track works.
The Lusail LRT project is underway with more than 35% of the construction works completed and will be put into operation in 2020.
