TRANSFORMING AGRA'S MOBILITY WITH ALSTOM-BUILT TRAINS AND CBTC SIGNALLING TECHNOLOGY

These world-class Movia metro trains integrate advanced signalling solution for safe and reliable service.

TRANSFORMING AGRA'S MOBILITY WITH ALSTOM-BUILT TRAINS AND CBTC SIGNALLING TECHNOLOGY

In a landmark moment, the historic city of Agra witnessed the commencement of metro service with the inaugural run made by the world-class trains built by Alstom. These new Movia metros are equipped with advanced Cityflo 650 signalling solution to ensure safe, reliable, and sustainable mobility to the commuters.

Alstom, a global leader in smart and sustainable mobility, has designed these trains at its engineering centre in Hyderabad with the signalling solution developed at Gurgaon & Bangkok. These trains have been manufactured at Alstom’s state-of-the-art facility in Savli (Gujarat), under the ‘Make in India’ and ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’ initiatives. Embedded with modern energy-efficient propulsion systems and regenerative braking, that reduce energy consumption, this is a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to other modes of transportation.

The trains will be equipped with Flexx metro bogies and the Mitrac propulsion system to increase energy efficiency, reduce operating costs, and ensure the new trains meet the highest environmental standards.

Agra Metro is equipped with Alstom’s advanced moving block CBTC solution Cityflo 650. This includes a modern ATP system with continuous supervision and continuous update of this information through transmissions from the radio. The vehicles and infrastructure are supervised using a modern computer-based control and supervision system. It ensures maximum availability and safety by using redundant interlocking computers. Alstom’s advanced signalling system provides a high level of passenger comfort – smooth braking and acceleration.

Alstom’s scope on the Agra-Kanpur metro project includes designing and delivering 201 metro cars (67 metro trainsets) and equipping Agra’s 2 Corridors (27 stations, 30 Km) with an advanced CBTC signalling solution (Cityflo 650).
