Transport: Tram operator ties Edinburgh down to preferred manufacturer

27 September 2007
 
The company behind the Edinburgh tram project has formally recommended its preferred bidder for the contract to supply the trams.

The council-owned firm, tie, will recommend tram manufacturer CAF to City of Edinburgh Council as the preferred bidder for the scheme. CAF provided the trains for the Heathrow Express, and recently supplied trams to Seville’s new tram system. The Edinburgh contract involves the manufacture of 27 trams and their maintenance for up to 30 years.

The recommendation will be brought before city councillors for their approval on 25 October.

Willie Gallagher, chairman of tie, said: ‘We laid down the gauntlet to the world’s tram manufacturers and CAF has delivered.’
