🚊 Big news from Texas!  Stadler has been selected by Austin Transit Partnership (ATP) to begin design for 21 next-generation light rail vehicles for Austin’s first-ever light rail line, with options for up to 19 additional trains. This exciting project will help transform urban mobility in one of the fastest-growing cities in the United States. The new all-electric system will feature 15 stations across nearly 10 miles of track and serve as the first phase of Austin’s expandable light rail system.  Martin Ritter, CEO Stadler Division North America says “Stadler’s CITYLINK platform is setting a new benchmark - defining what the next generation of light rail vehicles can be in the United States. Together with Austin Transit Partnership, we are helping shape a new era of transit in one of the fastest-growing cities in the United States.”   The project also reflects a highly collaborative approach, with Stadler working closely alongside ATP and project partners from the earliest design stages to ensure the best possible integration of vehicles and infrastructure. “ATP is excited to have Stadler join the Austin Light Rail team to design a vehicle with features never before delivered in the United States,” said Greg Canally, ATP’s CEO. “The action today demonstrates our commitment to build a light rail system that is right for Austin as ATP keeps advancing the project.” We’re proud to help shape the future of public transportation in Austin and set a new benchmark for light rail accessibility and performance in the United States.
