Energy transition, increasing urban mobility and multiple interconnections between cities and countries are all new challenges. The current state of transport infrastructures cannot cope with the continuous increase in the number of transport users. The global phenomenon of urbanisation, environmental issues and interoperability needs will radically change transport systems. Stricter requirements for safety, reliability, comfort and environmental standards will also have to be met. Disruptive digital technology will also revolutionize projects and transport infrastructures, which have become complex, due to the increasing number of users. Find solutions for ageing transport infrastructures and high population growth Develop sustainable infrastructures that consume less energy Meet the challenge of international competition between territories Take into account the critical nature of transport infrastructures OUR EXPERTISE IN TRANSPORTATIONS International engineering group Assystem has decades of experience in complex and highly regulated environments. This expertise is inherited from our developments in at least four countries: project management of large transportation infrastructures in France, design and project management of large transportation infrastructures in India, safety analysis in the UK, and design of transportation infrastructures in Saudi Arabia. Indeed, Assystem provides assistance to public and private players in urban, suburban, regional and international networks, both for rail and air transport: Metros & Railways: we have provided consultancy services on metro rail projects for three decades and have strong expertise in traffic network, tunnels, underground crossovers, elevated viaducts and stations or underground station. Assystem has also developed expertise over the years in planning entire rail systems, including track design, associated rail infrastructure such as station buildings, locomotive sheds, water supply, electrical services, rail accessory production plants, rail car unloading management, and the rehabilitation of rail structures. Airport & Aviation: we offer comprehensive design and project management consultancy services in the field of airports and aviation. Assystem has expertise in techno-economic feasibility studies and master planning of airport infrastructure, including airside and landside infrastructure design as well as the design of integrated terminal buildings catering to international and domestic traffic, the design of air traffic control towers, ground handling facilities, and cargo terminals, including logistic facilities for storage and warehousing. For both rail and air sectors, our major strengths lie in managing large infrastructure projects and our ability to integrate systems. The systems delivered by Assystem for transportation networks include instrumentation and control systems (signalisation, CBTC, ATS), system equipment (rolling stock, railway, electric traction, overhead lines, garages) electromechanical equipment (HVAC, smoke extraction, people with reduced mobility, elevators, escalators), power distribution (transformer and distribution substations), information and surveillance systems (passenger information systems, vehicle scheduling control system, video surveillance). Assystem is also involved in numerous infrastructure projects such as roads, bridges, etc. Discover our expertise in these sectors for urban and territorial development.

"Rail infrastructure to deliver the highest possible availability levels in order to guarantee continuous public service. Exploitation and optimization can not be done without the structuring of data volumes and their analysis in deph, in part, by artificial intelligence."
