Alstom Co. has delivered to Arriyadh Development Authority (ADA) the first metro trainset out of 69 trainsets of the Riyadh Metro project, the company said in a statement Monday.

 

France-based Alstom, which is part of the FAST consortium, is in charge of supplying a full integrated metro system for lines 4, 5 and 6 (or Yellow, Green, and Purple lines).

 

“This landmark project will allow Riyadh residents and visitors to commute aboard a reliable, comfortable and environmentally-friendly means of transport,” said Gian Luca Erbacci, Senior Vice President for Middle East & Africa at Alstom.

 

FAST Consortium signed a €5.8 billion contract with ADA, as one of three consortia contracted to design and build the Riyadh Metro Project. 

 

The FAST consortium includes FCC, Samsung, Alstom, Strukton and Freyssinet Saudi Arabia.
