TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS
Developing transportation systems for the world as the INFRASTRUCTURE SOLUTION PROVIDER
The transportation systems business sector is actively working on businesses that have high publicness and growth potential, centering on railway vehicles and systems in social infrastructure that are directly connected with the improvement of people’s daily lives. Exporting Japan’s highly advanced railway system contributes to the infrastructure of developing countries. It relieves traffic jams and helps promote a low carbon society. In addition, we contribute to the development of local communities by creating employment through assembly and maintenance work on site.
The following are achievements we have made in business in recent years; 1) Cairo Metro, which is highly lauded as “the fourth pyramid” in Egypt, 2) India Delhi Metro, which introduced Japanese energy-saving technology and was registered as the world’s first clean development mechanism (CDM) project in the railway business, 3) Dubai Metro, the world’s longest unmanned operation railway system, which is a project contracted throughout its design to construction and commencement of operation, and 4) an electric locomotive for tugboats that supports marine vessels that sail the Panama Canal.
The field of transportation infrastructure requires a wide variety of functions in a trading company, such as exploring projects, implementing feasibility studies, arranging financing, and composing consortiums. Furthermore, a general railway developer is also required that collectively contracts for planning routes, laying tracks, supplying vehicles and signal/communication devices, managing operations, and maintaining business. We firmly grasp these various customer needs and support customers to provide the best solutions.
