On April 5th Alstom has
signed a contract worth 19 M€ with Cairo Metro Organization for the
renovation of 52 units of the Line1 of the Cairo metro.
|
|
|
Each unit is composed by one
trailer car framed by two motorcars, which sum up to 156 cars. These cars were
delivered by Alstom in 1980. The renovation work will cover the brake system as
well as the electrical and traction equipment. The work will be carried out
over a period of 5 years and will take place mainly in the Tura workshop which
belongs to the Cairo Metro Organization.
The signature of the contract was carried during the inauguration of the New
“El Marg” metro station on Line1, in front of the media and numerous
officials.
This contract opens the door to spare parts contracts in relation with the
renovation work as well as future opportunities for the renovation of some
other 46 units delivered by Alstom in 1987. |
