RSSPöyry's Urban & Mobility Business Group has been awarded a US$3 million contract to provide specialised technical assistance to the consortium in charge of project management for the design and construction of Line 1 of the Panama Metro. Pöyry's services are related to the implementation of the whole metro system. The project began in July 2011 and is expected to be completed by June 2014.
The firm's previous advisory services for the Panama Metro project have included the basic design, bidding process and support during the award to the construction consortium. When complete, the metro line, the first to be built in Central America, will be 13.7 kms long and have 11 stations. Seven kilometres of the line will be underground and five on an elevated track.
