Public transport operator Semitan issued a call for tenders last September for a minimum of 46 vehicles to replace the fleet of Alstom TFS trams, which date from the opening of the first line in 1985.
French design agency RCP was appointed by Semitan and Nantes Métropole to develop interior design concepts for the new vehicles. Five workshops were held between June and September 2018 to give the city’s residents an opportunity to influence the look of the trams.
A supplier for the new vehicles is due to be announced at the end of the year.
