Description
The project consists of the acquisition of 161 new train sets to replace obsolete rolling stock for suburban and regional services in the Italian Lombardy Region.
Objectifs
The project will contribute to increasing the quality of passenger rail services in Lombardy. The new rolling stock is expected to allow more efficient operation, reduce maintenance costs, lower energy consumption and increase the level of comfort for passengers. Indirectly, by improving services, the renewal of rolling stock will help railways to compete with other transportation modes, particularly private vehicles, so as to maintain or improve its modal share. Shifting passenger flows from other modes to rail may result in reduced vehicle operation costs, as well as safety and environmental benefits.
