  • Automated Rapid Transit Trains
    Press Release 16 September 2014 A contract worth approximately €280 Million Alstom to deliver Australia’s first fully-automated rapid transit trains Alstom will deliver Sydney’s new generation of rapid transit trains as part of the North West Rail Link, Australia’s first fully-automated rail network and Australia’s largest public transport project. Under the operations contract for the North West Rail Link, awarded today to the Northwest Rapid Transit consortium, Alstom will be responsible for the project management, design, supply, manufacturing, testing and commissioning of the rolling stock and signalling systems. Alstom will supply 22 six-car fully-automated Metropolis train sets and the Communications Based Train Control (CBTC) signalling system. Under the contract, the North West Rail Link is expected to open in 2019. “Alstom’s Metropolis and computer based train control signalling systems are based on proven platforms that have been adapted to the specific needs of Sydney which will ensure fast, safe and reliable services to the residents of Sydney’s North West”, said Bernard Joyce, Managing Director of Alstom Transport in Australia and New Zealand. Alstom’s Metropolis is a world leading, proven, safe and reliable train that serves many of the great global cities including Amsterdam, Barcelona and Singapore, with more than 10 years of operational experience in fully-automated operation. More than 4000 cars have been sold in over 40 cities. The streamlined design for Sydney’s rapid transit trains has been developed to meet the needs of customers in Sydney. The trains will include 3 double-doors per car for improved access and passenger flows, large windows, ambient LED lighting.

  • A Bid for Better Transit Improving Service with Contracted Operations Transitcenter Is a Foundation That Works to Improve Urban Mobility
    A Bid for Better Transit Improving service with contracted operations TransitCenter is a foundation that works to improve urban mobility. We believe that fresh thinking can change the transportation landscape and improve the overall livability of cities. We commission and conduct research, convene events, and produce publications that inform and improve public transit and urban transportation. For more information, please visit www.transitcenter.org. The Eno Center for Transportation is an independent, nonpartisan think tank that promotes policy innovation and leads professional development in the transportation industry. As part of its mission, Eno seeks continuous improvement in transportation and its public and private leadership in order to improve the system’s mobility, safety, and sustainability.

  • The Impact of Atmospheric River Events in Preserved Stable Water Isotope Signature in the Snow Pack in Finse, Southern Norway
    The impact of atmospheric river events in preserved stable water isotope signature in the snow pack in Finse, Southern Norway Evelien van Dijk Thesis submitted for the degree of Master in Physical Geography, Hydrology and Geomatics 60 credits Department of Geoscience Faculty of mathematics and natural sciences UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Spring 2018 The impact of atmospheric river events in preserved stable water isotope signature in the snow pack in Finse, Southern Norway Evelien van Dijk © 2018 Evelien van Dijk The impact of atmospheric river events in preserved stable water isotope signature in the snow pack in Finse, Southern Norway http://www.duo.uio.no/ Printed: Reprosentralen, University of Oslo Abstract Stable water isotopes have become a key element in hydrological and atmospheric research topics. Hydrologists aim to close the water cycle, and the improvement of measurement techniques and models makes that they come closer every time. Especially the atmospheric part of the cycle is not yet fully understood, and this study aims to get an increased understanding about the isotopic signals in the snow pack, and if the snow pack record may be used to derive an improved understanding of the importance of atmospheric river events for the Norwegian snow cover. The Finse area has been chosen as a proxy site for Norway, and 215 samples have been taken to analyze for stable water isotopes. 11 different snow profiles that were computed from snow pits that were excavated during the fieldwork were compared with the isotope values for δ18O and d-excess, and with meteorological data provided by the meteorological institute of Norway.
