Since 1995, Metro de Madrid has planned and completed five major railway construction projects, each on time and within budget, building Nearly 190 Km of new railway lines. This huge work volume has been strictly carried out complying with all scheduled opening dates, designing the most appropriate equipment for a trustworthy exploitation, modern and of quality for passengers at the same time as the necessary investment was optimised. A close relationship with suppliers, constructors and local administrations has proved our capability to adapt to changing, specific and urgent requirements. Our worldwide references With these precedents, Metro de Madrid began some years ago offering to local administrations and railway undertakers, with excellent guarantees, its expert services in designing, selecting, implementing and setting up of all railway infrastructures that could be required in new construction lines and depots as well as in upgrading of the already existing and for all means of guided urban transport: metro, light railway and tram. As a result of these references Metro de Madrid is working, at different stages, in 25 cities around the world, such as Santo Domingo, Tunisia, San Petersburg, Santiago

  • Transportation Infrastructure Impacts on Firm Location

    Transportation Infrastructure Impacts on Firm Location

    Transportation infrastructure impacts on firm location: the effect of a new metro line in the suburbs of Madrid Lucia Mejia-Dorantes , Antonio Paez , Jose Manuel Vassallo Firm location patterns emerge as a consequence of multiple factors, including firm considerations, labor force availability, market opportunities, and transportation costs. Many of these factors are influenced by changes in accessibility wrought by new transportation infrastructure. In this paper we use spatial sta­ tistical techniques and a micro-level data base to evaluate the effects of Madrid's metro line 12 (known as Metrosur) expansion on business location patterns. The case study is the municipality of Alcorcon, which is served by the new metro line since 2003. Specifically, we explore the location patterns by dif­ ferent industry sectors, to evaluate if the new metro line has encouraged the emergence of a "Metrosur spatial economy". Our results indicate that the pattern of economic activity location is related to urban accessibility and that agglomeration, through economies of scale, also plays an important role. The results presented in this paper provide evidence useful to inform efficient transportation, urban, and regional economic planning. 1.

    Press Release

    Press release 27 October 2011 Contract worth €325 million Alstom to supply line 2 of Los Teques metro in Venezuela « Consorcio Linea 2 »1 has awarded a contract globally worth €530 million to the Alstom-led consortium “Grupo de Empresas” to build the second line of Los Teques metro in Miranda State, Venezuela. The line, 12 km long and served by 6 stations, will enter service in October 2015. Alstom’s share of the contract is worth around €325 million. Alstom – which has a share of the consortium of over 60%, along with Colas Rail (22%) and Thales (17%) - will undertake the global coordination of the project, including engineering, integration and commissioning of the electromechanical works on a turnkey basis. In addition, the company will supply 22 metro trains of 6 cars each, medium voltage electrification, traction substations and part of the signalling equipment. The metro trains are from the Alstom’s standard Metropolis platform. Los Teques metro is a suburban mass-transit extension of the Caracas metro system (opening of the first line in 1983, 4 lines currently in commercial service, 600 cars supplied by Alstom). It has been designed to connect the Venezuelan capital to the city of Los Teques. The contract for the supply of the electromechanical system for the line 1 (9.5 km, 2 stations) was signed in October 2005 during a bilateral meeting between France and Venezuela in Paris. This line was inaugurated before the last Presidential elections in November 2006. Line 1 of Los Teques metro currently carries over 42,000 passengers per day.

  • Santo Domingo Metro Financing Rolling Stock and Mechanical Equipment

    Santo Domingo Metro Financing Rolling Stock and Mechanical Equipment

    Institutional Clients Group Santo Domingo Metro Financing rolling stock and mechanical equipment Case Study The Challenge The Santo Domingo Metro is a rapid transit system in Santo Domingo, the capital of the Dominican Republic. In January 2009, Line One of the Metro began providing commercial services. The Metro System is the first in the country and second in the Caribbean. Daily ridership on Line One is approximately 105,000 people. Construction of Line Two of the Metro is underway. In order to purchase electromechanical equipment and rolling stock components, €270 million of financing was required. The electromechanical equipment will be supplied by the Eurodom Consortium made up of Thales and TIM/TSO, and the rolling stock by Alstom Transport, with the equipment originating in Spain, France, Germany and Belgium. With this project total ridership per day will increase to 250,000 people. The Ministry of Finance of the Dominican Republic is guarantor of the facilities, providing an unconditional, irrevocable guarantee supporting the borrower under the facilities. The Office for the Restructuring of Transit (OPRET) is the borrower. The Solution Citi participated as a mandated co-lead arranger in a syndicated €270 million Export Credit Agency-supported (ECA) financing for OPRET to finance the purchase of the electromechanical equipment and rolling stock components for Line Two of the Santo Domingo Metro. Citi, and the other mandated lead arrangers, leveraged the financial structure that had been implemented for the Line One financing of the Metro. This allowed for certain and rapid execution of the Line Two transaction. The Result The inclusion of four ECAs enabled OPRET to maximize ECA-supported financing and minimize commercial debt in its financing mix.
