Teleste will deploy its on-board solutions for CAF’s metro projects in the Philippines and Italy in 2019. The technology is expected to allow transport operators to deliver timely information to passengers.

The scope of the delivery includes 30 metro units in the city of Manila and 12 units in the city of Naples.

Pekka Vänni, director of on-board solutions for Teleste, says: “In cities such as Manila, the availability of accurate and timely passenger information is essential for an effective public transport system connecting hundreds of thousands of travellers each day.”

As part of the deployment, Teleste will provide the metro trains in Manila with a passenger information system (PIS) and ethernet network. The metro trains in Naples will receive a PIS and CCTV systems with an ethernet network.
