Already six tramway operators in Switzerland have chosen the TRAMLINK of Stadler. They have been in operation in Lugano since last year and will soon start operating in the canton of Aargau, Basel, and Bern. The innovative, high-capacity, low-floor multi-articulated trams are characterized by an innovative real axle bogie that guarantees a quiet and comfortable ride and maximum seating capacity over the bogies. It will be the first standard gauge TRAMLINK in Switzerland.
The new Lausanne TRAMLINKs are fully accessible. They offer bright, spacious, barrier-free compartments with wide aisles. They have three multipurpose areas next to the doors with space reserved for wheelchairs, trolleys, and bicycles. Eight double-leaf doors per side, with sliding steps to avoid gaps between the platform and the tram, ensure a fast and safe flow of passengers. Its exclusive interior design, as well as the complete acoustic and thermal insulation of the new trams and their efficient air-conditioning system, guarantee the comfort and safety of the passengers. With a length of almost 45 m and a width of 2.65 m, they offer a large passenger capacity of up to 316 persons.
