9:10 AM INTERNATIONAL KEYNOTE PRESENTATION: Delivering Safe and Reliable Services at Metro Rio through Intelligent Systems for Passengers and Asset Management

Overall expansion of the Metro Rio rail network contributed to the volume stability of passengers transported, equivalent to 2.93 billion people in 2017. If not for the increase in systems, expansion of the network and new stations, passenger demand would have fallen 1.2%. In this international case study presentation, Joubert will discuss how Metro Rio successfully expanded their services to meet passenger demand, referencing the intelligent systems and upgrades to ensure safe and reliable transportation, particularly for future networks.

Providing new fleet fitted with a modern layout, new airconditioning, multimedia systems and accessibility to provide comfort for passengers, and how to maintain such assets to future proof network reliability
Developing strong engineering support and data management to provide real-time, predictable services to maximise efficiency
Creating the business case to determine areas of expansion and technological investment and how it can impact asset management strategies to continuously meet passenger demand
