Transportation
Transportation engineering since 1984
In the transportation field, Ingerop has cultivated the ability to meet client expectations in both the public and private sectors. We focus on cross-disciplinary and functional approaches in the pre-project phase and call on our proven technical abilities to provide the best solutions during the construction phase.
Our scope of work covers all green transport modes, taking into account the challenges of multimodality and delivering the best possible user experience for travellers.
When it comes to tramways, our expertise in systems and operation engineering has become a key asset in the French market, both for the design of new lines and the supervision of maintenance work on existing lines.
While tramways have historically accounted for most of our activity in this discipline, today we are active in all public transport modes from automated metros to high-speed rail lines, buses (both electric and green hydrogen), light and heavy rail and cable car systems. The metro and rail sectors account for over 50% of our current design workload.

Engineering has undergone a digital revolution over the last 30 years, with the integration of computers into everyday design processes.
Ingerop was a pioneer in the development of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in France, starting with Buildings and then applying it to Transport and Urban Development. When applied to cities, BIM becomes CIM or City Information Modelling.
We have expertise in all commercial BIM tools and also create new ones for clients, operators and maintenance providers.
Faced with the exponential growth of the world’s urban population, Ingerop has developed specific skills for delivering mass rapid transit in cities, from large-scale automated metros to simple, cost-efficient subway lines.
Over the years, Ingerop has designed metro lines for several regional metropolitan areas such as Rennes (population 200 000), but also for major capital cities like Lima (4 million), Paris (10 million) and Cairo (20 million).
Ingerop has played a key role in the deployment of the most efficient transport modes for major cities over the past 20 years, designing systems on five continents.
We strive every day to support our public and private sector clients, focusing on multidisciplinary approaches in the pre-project phases and calling on our cutting-edge technical skills to deliver quality design and efficient implementation.
Our extensive regional network enables us to offer uncompromising technical expertise on the ground at project sites and effective management throughout the whole project life cycle. This is one of the key factors supporting the growth of Ingerop’s rail offering.
