Alstom is the trusted partner to deliver integrated monorail systems customised for every operational need with 40 years of experience in monorail design, build and operation.

Fast and cost-effective to build

Pre-cast sections of guideway are constructed offsite to allow for exceptionally rapid assembly on location and monorails require shorter platforms and stations, resulting in reduced cost of civil construction.

Seamless integration with buildings and structures

Monorails are ideally suited to dense urban areas, able to operate with a sharp curve radius and steep grades (up to 6%) and running on a light infrastructure  and a slim and light guideway structure.

    In 2017, Alstom was awarded a contract to deliver fully automated monorail systems for the Pink (34.5km) and Yellow (30.4km) lines in Bangkok. The Yellow Line started service in June 2023 reducing journey time to a third in the heavily congested area of the city.
