Tracks design R&D
The Coventry Very Light Rail (VLR) project, led by Coventry City Council in collaboration with the University of Warwick, has appointed Ingerop as “innovative partner” to design a new type of tramline.
The project has the potential to revolutionize light rail systems all over the world, as VLR provides a new type of low weight rolling stock, allowing a fast and comfortable journey for all travelers.
Ingerop has developed a new type of track, easy and quick to install, largely prefabricated, which does not imply the reallocation of existing utilities networks (water, gas…), reducing significantly the cost and the construction time of the light rail projects for the cities.
