ABB will provide key components for power distribution for the Hurontario line.
ABB has been awarded a contract by Hitachi Rail to provide traction power equipment for the Hurontario Light Rail Transit (HuLRT) project in Toronto, Canada. Among its roles, Hitachi leads the Systems and Revenue Vehicle components of the project. The contract value of the Hurontario LRT is $4.6 billion. The Hurontario LRT is expected to open in late 2024.
ABB’s Transportation Rail and Infrastructure team will provide key components for power distribution for HuLRT, a new light-rail transit line connecting the busy commuting route between Mississauga and Brampton, to ensure its safe and reliable operation with almost zero emissions.
