Metros and trams

Mobility needs in cities around the world have increased significantly in recent decades. Urban and metropolitan rail transport systems, such as subways, light rail, and trams, have gained special importance due to the quality of service they offer. Their large capacity, high frequencies, high regularity rates, universal accessibility, and low carbon footprint make them user-friendly and sustainable modes of transport highly valued by citizens.

OFITECO has participated in numerous projects of this nature, from the planning and design phases to construction and maintenance.
