This latest contract is worth 33 million euros (37.30m USD) and covers preventive and corrective maintenance of signalling devices and installations on nine lines of the Paris metro and seven tramway lines for the next four years.

Hitachi Rail’s maintenance teams will be available 24 hours a day, and the scope of work also includes assisting the RATP with track work when necessary.
