New construction and renovation of track in inner-city local traffic

Due to the always increasing traffic pressure and environmental pollution in the areas of high population density, tramways as a modern, rapid and especially future oriented means of transport are becoming more and more important. The maintenance and expansion of track-bound traffic are therefore an ever growing concern for the urban authorities.
No matter, if you are looking for maintenance works or new construction, with our Team Verkehrsbetriebe (public transportation services) we are the right partner for you. In addition to the traditional track construction works like platform construction and track and point works, we offer various individual and custom-made project options including non-ballasted track, green track and ballasted track, as well as turnout systems.
It goes without saying for us, that performances are carried out economically, on schedule and in impeccable quality in fair cooperation among partners.
