Translohr Tramways on tyres
Translohr tramways on tyres
At the very heart of the challenges for eco-mobility the solutions
developed by NTL fall within the new generation of urban transport
systems which are accessible, electric and high volume.
The Translohr tramways on tyres combine the advantages of a guided
system with its central rail with those of a vehicle on tyres, with
unique insertion and clearance characteristics. More than 130
Translohr tramways on tyres are operated worldwide: in France, in
Italy, in China and in Colombia.
