These new trains, delivered progressively by Alstom at a rate of one unit per month, will be put into service as they are received. This order aims to address a significant increase in liO train ridership and the growing mobility needs of the region's inhabitants.
With current maintenance workshops nearing saturation, SNCF Voyageurs is studying the creation of a new track at the Perpignan site. This new facility would include an under-train inspection pit, a walkway, and a 90-meter shelter to allow work day and night, protected from bad weather and summer climatic conditions.
In addition to funding this study, the Region is preparing for the implementation of a future coastal workshop in the Béziers-Colombier sector.
