Delivery of the first tram for the Mid-Life Maintenance Project of De Lijn

CAF Delivers the first tram unit for the Belgian Operator De Lijn - Vlaamse Vervoermaatschappij

CAF has delivered the first tram unit for De Lijn - Vlaamse Vervoermaatschappij, following the successful completion of mid-life maintenance works involving the installation of new systems and equipment.

This intervention is part of a contract awarded to the CAF Group, which includes a series of high-value technical tasks aimed at ensuring optimal performance, operational reliability, and the extension of the fleet’s service life.

The scope of the project includes:

• Structural repairs
• Design improvements (interior and exterior aesthetics) and enhanced accessibility
• Integration of new equipment and systems, including:
  • Rear-view camera system
  • Sand level measurement system
  • Battery voltmeter indicator

These upgrades will provide the trams with improved levels of comfort, efficiency, and availability, adapting them to current operational needs.

We would like to thank De Lijn - Vlaamse Vervoermaatschappij for the trust placed in the CAF Group. We remain firmly committed to excellence, quality, and innovation in every project we undertake.

We are currently awaiting the arrival of the remaining units in order to move forward with the next phases of the project.
