Tisséo Collectivités and Tisséo Ingénierie have awarded consortium-leader Systra and Arcadis a systems project management assistance (PMA) contract for the third metro line of the Greater Toulouse region.
The contract will involve defining all systems for the line, stations and the maintenance and stabling site. This includes rolling stock, automated and non-automated control systems, centralised control systems and platform screen doors, as well as track, power and maintenance equipment.
The new line is approximately 27 km long and will transport more than 200,000 people per day in both directions, serving a total of 20 stations. It will connect with metro Lines A and B, two tram lines and several Linéo bus lines. It will also improve the connection between Blagnac airport and Matabiau station.
“Following our project management assistance assignment for three lines on the Grand Paris Express, as well as our role automating Line B of Lyon Metro, Systra is once again at the centre of a major automated metro project in France. This new contract for the Line 3 project in Toulouse confirms Systra’s position as the signature team for automated metro systems,” Jean-Yves Reynaud, Systra’s Commercial Director for France, said.
