Activity Report 2022 21 The start of a long story in Hong Kong China “In 2022, MTR chose SYSTRA to conduct an audit as part of the project to overhaul the signalling system in operation on our urban lines. We were impressed by the team’s expertise and its professional attitude, as well as its ongoing commitment to working to a very high standard. SYSTRA understood the specific nature of our projects and proved to be particularly innovative in the way in which it addressed our challenges. We have also entrusted it with a number of other projects to do with auditing our maintenance and asset management system. There is no doubt that this is just the start of our partnership with SYSTRA.” “The city of Ahmedabad has embarked on a metro project, the planning and construction of which have been entrusted to the Gujarat Metro Rail Corporation (GMRC). Phase 1 includes two main corridors – North-South and East-West – which are essential for the city’s growth. These will total some 40 kilometres in length.
