In order to contribute to sustainable and efficient mobility in Ecuador, the city of Quito will acquire 50 trolleybuses to improve the municipal transportation service.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

 The project will be implemented in accordance with international best practices and will guarantee the highest standards in the sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Empresa P\u00fablica Metropolitana de Transporte de Pasajeros<\/strong> of the capital signed an agreement with the United Nations Office for Project Services for the acquisition of new units.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new trolleybuses will be 100% electric, which means that they will not emit polluting gases or noise. In addition, they will have the latest safety and accessibility technologies to guarantee a comfortable and safe trip for all users.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to local press reports, US$33 million will be invested in the units<\/strong>, which are scheduled to arrive in Quito in the second quarter of 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They will have a capacity of 160 passengers, exclusive areas for wheelchairs, intelligent video surveillance systems, digital screens and a comprehensive information system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ecuador has made significant progress to massify sustainable mobility. At the end of 2023, the Medellin Metro began commercial operations on its “13th” line, this time outside Colombia with the Quito Metro in Ecuador.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To achieve this goal, Empresa Operadora Metro de Medell\u00edn Transdev<\/strong> (EOMMT) was created in Quito as a result of a partnership between Metro de Medell\u00edn and the French-based transnational Transdev.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Quito Metro will carry an average of 400,000 people on 18 trains<\/strong>, which will run on a subway railway with 15 stations, 5 of which are intermodal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
