[Embargo until

7h45 am] – The
Alstom-led consortium with Taiwanese engineering and contracting
services company CTCI has been awarded a contract by the Systemwide
E&M Project Office Department of Rapid Transit Systems of
Taipei City Government (SEMPO) to provide its state-of-the-art
integrated metro system for Taipei Circular Line Phase Two. Valued
close to €720 million, this order for the city’s fully automated
(Grade of Automation 4) metro line marks the recent consortium’s
second turnkey metro project in Taiwan after the
Wanda-Zhonghe-Shulin Line. Under the contract with its share at
over €430 million1, Alstom will also renew the signalling system
for Phase One of the Circular Line2. The framework contract
includes an order option to supply the line’s Phase Three
system.
Phase Two of the Circular Line comprises a north
and a south section, which spans 14.93 km with 12 underground
stations and one depot, and 5.73 km with six underground stations,
respectively.
Alstom will be responsible for 29
fully-automated four-car Metropolis trains, Urbalis 400
Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC) signalling system,
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system, and
Platform Screen Doors (PSD). CTCI will lead for the track work,
power supply, depot equipment, telecommunication and ticketing
systems. The project involves overhauling the existing CBTC
signalling system during the limited engineering hours, to minimise
the impact on passenger service.
“This contract with SEMPO is a vote of
confidence in our internationally proven and quality mobility
offering, and a testament to our team’s hard work over the last
four decades towards making rail transport even more sustainable
for the capital city of Taiwan. It also cements our position as the
sole signalling supplier for the entire Metro Taipei network.
Overall, this is an example of how the Asia-Pacific market remains
dynamic and we aim to maintain our market leadership across most
segments.” said Ling Fang, President of Alstom in Asia
Pacific.

(rolling stock), and Bologna, Italy (signalling) will participate
in the Circular Line project, supported by sites in Bangalore,
India, Saint-Ouen, Le Creusot, Ornans, France and Taipei, Taiwan.
The project management and system integration will be managed
locally with the support of Alstom’s Turnkey engineering
centre.
