Transport for London (TfL) has granted Bombardier Transportation a major contract extension to service trains operating on the London Overground network. The scope of works is maintenance and support services for the Bombardier Electrostar Class 378 fleet in operation on the London Overground network. The contract extension is a variation to an existing Train Services Agreement, which was scheduled to end in December 2023. Under the new extension, the contract, originally signed in 2006, will continue until May 2030. The value of the contract has increased to £106 million GBP (EUR 120 million).
Under the Train Services Agreement, maintenance will take place at four separate locations in and around London including New Cross Gate depot in south east London, and Willesden Train Care Depot in north London.
“This contract change demonstrates TfL’s continued confidence in Bombardier’s delivery of high quality fleet maintenance services. We were able to show improved value for money, and through collaborative work with the customer, reduced service locations and extended maintenance intervals,” Richard Hunter, UK Managing Director of Bombardier Transportation, said.
