The new MRT is the core engineering capabilities of French public transportation operators RATP DEV, so it was decided to jointly bid the operating rights of the Jurong area and cross -outdoor line.Once the bidding is won, the two parties will set up a joint venture company, and the new MRT will account for a major equity.
Shen Weiming, president of the New MRT Group, revealed to Lianhe Zaobao that the equity ratio of joint ventures has been consent to the Land Transport Administration.The position of the joint venture company, including the president, will be appointed by the New MRT.
The Land Communications Bureau announced in May last year as the operator of the Jurong area and cross -out islands.These two lines are only open to the SMRT subway and the new MRT bid, but foreign operators can jointly bid operating rights with the two companies as a minority shareholder.
RATP DEV's core engineering capabilities can ensure very high level security and reliability
Shen Weiming said that RATP DEV has deep core engineering capabilities to ensure very high -level railway safety and reliability.This industry is also operated in 14 countries and has the ability to customize the plan according to the requirements of local transportation operators.
He gives an example that RATP Dev has its own circuit card maintenance capabilities, which can bring benefits whether to reduce costs, or shorten the time of maintenance and return circuit cards.
Circuit cards are one of the key components of subway trains and signal systems. A train may have multiple circuit cards. Therefore, if the part is damaged, it can affect the signal between the train and the rail device, causing the subway service to fail.
The new MRT parent company Kangford Gao also bid with Ratp Dev to bid the subway project in the French Paris, and successfully captured the project No. 15.
