The 3rd November saw the inauguration of the Los Teques line, which was celebrated at the station of El Tambor in the presence of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, several Minsters and Ambassadors, the Governor of the state of Miranda, authorities of C.A. Metro Los Teques, and representatives of ALSTOM Transport and consortium FRAMECA.




This project was awarded to the ALSTOM-led FRAMECA consortium in September 2005 by the public operator C.A. Metro Los Teques, a turnkey contract worth 204 million Euros. ALSTOM’s share is 90 million euros, for supplying a total of 6 trainsets, the traction electrification and part of the signalling equipment. ALSTOM also ensured the piloting and coordination of the project. A second track will be commissioned at the beginning of 2008.

The line, which is located in the State of Miranda runs 9,8 km from Las Adjuntas at the south end of Line 2 to El Tambor on the outskirts of Los Teques, will both relieve congested roads and complement the existing metro network.

For the last 23 years, ALSTOM Transport delivered 600 cars for metro lines 1,2,3 and 4, and provided rolling stock midlife overhaul to 400 metro cars, as well as power supply equipment for line 1 for Venezuelan metro.
