This is CAF’s first contract in Australia. This new project includes the supply of 6 new streetcars including maintenance of existing units. The units will run on the Inner West rail extension linking the residential area to the City Centre.
These new streetcars are the most modern generation of the Urbos platform, 100% low floor, and comprising 5 modules. In addition, they provide the best streetcar vehicle passenger accessibility conditions available today.
In 2014, residents of Inner West will also have transport to the city centre, together with an extension of 5.6 kilometres on the Lilyfield to Dulwich Hill line.
