First announced in 2019, the Luanda metro project is now entering the ‘development stage.’ So far, two MOUs have been signed between the Angolan Ministry of Transport and Siemens Mobility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, the Luanda metro is a surface light rail network consisting of 149 km of tracks. The estimated cost is USD 3.5 billion. The project shall be implemented under a Public-Private Partnership (#PPP<\/a>) as per MoU signed in 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n

The first phase consists of the Yellow Line which has 24 stations and is 39-km long. It will link the seaport of Luanda to the new city of Kilamba, built by China. Rolling stock depots are also planned at each end of the Yellow Line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In March 2023, the Presidential office published an update on the Luanda metro project. The implementation of the Yellow Line is estimated to cost around EUR 1.3 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n

The announcement also indicated that a simplified contracting procedure with Siemens Mobility will be employed to speed things up. As part of the deal, Siemens will also supply 68 four-car Light Rail Vehicles (LRV).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, Luanda is experiencing acute traffic jams. The situation is expected to get from bad to worse as the population is forecasted to balloon from the current 8 to 12 million by 2030.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
