Keolis is a global leader in tramways
From its humble beginnings more than 30 years ago in Lille, France, Keolis has developed into one of the world’s leading tramway operators. Today, the Group operates 16 networks, including the world’s largest in Melbourne (29 lines and 250 km of track), and is currently preparing the 2017 launch of two new lines in Waterloo, Canada, and Aarhus, Denmark.
From the design stage to operations, including the choice of rolling stock, maintenance, recruitment and employee training, Keolis’ expertise covers all phases of the project lifecycle, regardless of the technology used: traditional tracked trams running on iron rails with steel wheels (powered by overhead lines or catenary-free), rubber-tyred trams (running on dedicated track or sharing the road space with other vehicles), or tram-trains (running on dedicated lanes and on the suburban rail network).
