The 24m-long trams are equipped with four double doors on each side and have capacity for 140 passengers.
The Citadis X05 compact features 100% LED lighting, and large windows covering 40% of the tram, is energy efficient and up to 98% recyclable.
In May 2017, Greater Avignon Council and Tecelys, the local government-owned company responsible for transport operation, selected a consortium of NGE Group’s TSO subsidiary, Guintoli, EHTP, Agilis, and Alstom, to deliver civil and track works for the Avignon tramway.
The project includes installing 5.4km of civil infrastructure, 10.8km of track, eight track turnouts, 10 stations and a maintenance centre.
The tramway is expected to be inaugurated in June 2019.
