Bombardier is equipping over 100 km of the KVMRT network with the technology, which offers operators optimised network capacity and heightened responsive traffic management.
The system, which features a centralised control centre system and advanced radio-based communications, has been achieving high levels of availability since phase 1 opened in December 2016. Driverless trains operate with a peak-time frequency of less than three and a half-minute intervals and at speeds of just under 100 km/h. The new line offers a time-efficient and comfortable journey for passengers to cross the city within 90 minutes.
