To accommodate new projects, Alstom is investing around €14 million (R$ 80 million) in modernizations and adaptations of its factory, aiming to start producing the new projects from 2022.

To train future professionals who will work on the production of over 130 trains, including more than 750 cars, Alstom signed a partnership with Senai Taubaté. The announcement was made on the morning of this Tuesday (5), at the Taubaté factory in the presence of the governor of São Paulo, João Doria, and the Secretary of Metropolitan Transportation, Alexandre Baldy, as well as the president of Senai Taubaté, Fernando Gonçalves.

The new jobs at the factory in the interior of the state of São Paulo will serve to meet contracts for the Line 6-Orange of the São Paulo metro and for Lines 8-Diamond and 9-Emerald of the São Paulo Metropolitan Train System. In addition to these two national projects, Alstom will also manufacture at the Taubaté unit, trains for the second phase of the Circular Line and for the extension of Line 7 of the Taipei Metro in Taiwan, as well as the new M5 line of the Bucharest Metro in Romania.
