The framework agreements in Sweden have a term of at least four years and include two options for extensions of two years each; including the options, the agreements are worth more than 75 million euros, and production will be undertaken by Vossloh’s Customised Modules division in Sweden, which has supplied switch systems and components to Trafikverket for many years.
Andreas Busemann, CEO of Vossloh, said: “We are pleased that the renewed trust Trafikverket placed in Vossloh will allow us to continue our successful co-operation with them.
“The renewed contract is a sign of the reliability of our products.”
In Italy, the framework agreement has a term of two years and is worth 25 million euros. Production will be undertaken by the Customised Modules division in France.
