AnsaldoBreda to Upgrade LRVs in San Francisco

The San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) has entered into a $54 million contract with AnsaldoBreda, a Finmeccanica company, to upgrade 143 light rail vehicles for the San Francisco Municipal Railway (Muni) operated by SFMTA. The city has operated AnsaldoBreda vehicles since 1996.

San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom recognized the contract as part of “making the investment in our light rail system to keep San Francisco a transit-first city.”

The manufacturer will conduct the overhaul work on doors, steps, couplers, air supply units, wiring, and bearings at its plant in Pittsburg, CA.
