Egis has just registered a new success in Thailand, after signing a contract for Bangkok Metro’s “Pink Line” as Project Consultant with its local partner Team Consult. The Pink Line – the country’s first monorail project – has been planned as part of the “Mass Rapid Transit Master Plan” (M-MAP), an extensive programme to develop the public transport network in the Bangkok metropolitan region. Stretching 34.5km, the future line will run between the north-western province of Nonthaburi and Thailand’s capital city Bangkok. The line will blend seamlessly into the existing transport network, offering connections with the Dark Red railway line, the Purple and Orange metro lines and the elevated Sukhumvit Line, which is part of the Bangkok Mass Transit System (BMTS). Project management and construction supervision of the line will be led by the TEAM Group / Egis consortium for a three-year period.
