Montreal Subway¡¯s AZUR Cars

In its subway network modernization plan, the Montreal Transit Corporation (STM) wanted to update its fleet of cars, a number of which dated back to the network¡¯s 1966 inauguration. The STM partnered with Groupement DST, led by Â鶹´«Ã½, to accompany them in this massive endeavor.

Our team managed and provided technical Â鶹´«Ã½ for numerous projects developed in parallel¡ªensuring the integration and operation of the new trains. New equipment was purchased and training programs developed including a full-scope simulator for operators.

No aspect of the design was left to chance, and commuters¡¯ needs were at the center of the project. Beyond its ergonomic seating and panoramic windows, the AZUR trains stand out for their larger, obstruction-detecting smart doors and improved ventilation.

Since 2016, commuters have enjoyed the benefits of these ultra-modern, ecological, and comfortable AZUR trains¡ªtrains that are leading the industry with their cutting-edge technology. The final tally? A total of 54 trains (486 cars) in service.
