Marseille Transport Network

Metalwork equipment for the Marseille Metro network

Portalp, through its major projects agency and its expertise in rail transport, has won 3 tenders to equip the Marseille metro with automated solutions and metalwork.

The project team, consisting of nine people—including a project manager, a site supervisor, a foreman, two installation crews, and three subcontractors—works simultaneously across these different teams on various projects at night so as not to disrupt operations.

The Marseille Metro network, operated by RTM (Régie des Transports Métropolitains), consists of two metro lines and includes 29 stations to be equipped, serving 321,000 passengers daily.
