Thales, through its local joint venture Thales Saic Transportation, has been awarded the signalling contract for phase 1 of Guangzhou metro lines 14 and 21. 
Spanning around 138 kilometres in total, both lines will be equipped with Thales’ SelTrac CBTC rail signalling system. The two lines are designed to run with a combination of express and normal routes, which will significantly reduce journey times. Lines 14 and 21 are expected to be operational by the end of 2017.
Based on a 100 per cent transfer
