  • Tango-Type Tram-Train for Aarhus Letbane I/S, Denmark
    Tango-type tram-train for Aarhus Letbane I/S, Denmark Aarhus Letbane I/S has awarded the contract for the implementation of its light rail vehicle (LRV) project to the ASAL Consortium (Ansaldo STS, GCF and Stadler). Stadler won the tender to supply 24 vehicles: 12 Variobahn low-floor trams and 12 Tango low-floor light rail vehicles. The Tango-type tram-trains supplied by Stadler for city and suburban traffic in Aarhus are modern, multiple-unit, 100% low-floor vehicles with a modular design.

ELENA will support the research of innovative technical solutions on how to transform a traditional local freight and passenger rail line into a light rail network with rail freight capability. ELENA will provide support to strengthen the current organisation. Due to the complexity of the project Aarhus Light Rail I/S has to hire more people - primarily specialist and lawyers - to ensure the necessary permits and agreements with the stakeholders and organisations involved in the project. Aligning the stakeholders is crucial to achieve a successful implementation of the project, which will be able to finish and operate on time.

  • UNECE Tram and Metro Statistics Metadata Introduction File Structure Country Notes
    UNECE Tram and Metro Statistics Metadata Introduction This file gives detailed country notes on the UNECE tram and metro statistics dataset. These metadata describe how countries have compiled tram and metro statistics, what the data cover, and where possible how passenger numbers and passenger-km have been determined. Whether data are based on ticket sales, on-board sensors or another method may well affect the comparability of passenger numbers across systems and countries, hence it being documented here. Most of the data are at the system level, allowing comparisons across cities and systems. However, not every country could provide this, sometimes due to confidentiality reasons. In these cases, sometimes either a regional figure (e.g. the Provinces of Canada, which mix tram and metro figures with bus and ferry numbers) or a national figure (e.g. Czechia trams, which excludes the Prague tram system) have been given to maximise the utility of the dataset. File Structure The disseminated file is structured into seven different columns, as follows: Countrycode: These are United Nations standard country codes for statistical use, based on M49. The codes together with the country names, region and other information are given here https://unstats.un.org/unsd/methodology/m49/overview/ (and can be downloaded as a CSV directly here https://unstats.un.org/unsd/methodology/m49/overview/#). City: This column gives the name of the city or region where the metro or tram system operates. In many cases, this is sufficient to identify the system. Type: This describes the type of transport system. Most values are either Tram or Metro.
