"The general purpose of the consultancy is to analyze the feasibility of implementing an Integrated Mass Public Transport System for the East-West Axis of the Metropolitan Area of Guatemala City, at the pre-feasibility level, which articulates in an integral way, with the current and future mobility dynamics, the existing and planned transport offer in the coming years, as well as with the projected urban development plans and that allows institutional decisions regarding the project to be made.
In Guatemala, it is proposed to develop an underground metro that would connect in its initial phase the municipality of Mixco with Zone 15 of the capital and would require a $700 million investment.
The new project proposed is in addition to the several proposals and attempts that have been made to implement a mass transportation system in the metropolitan area of Guatemala, which resolves at once the serious problem of road congestion affecting the capital. Thus, in addition to the Metro Riel project and the urban cable cars between Mixco, Villa Nueva and the capital, a new initiative has now been added to build an underground train.
The consortium made up of two Japanese companies and one French company will develop the pre-feasibility study for the new metro master network, with emphasis on lines 4 and 5.
The consortium, called Nippon Koei Lac-Sytra, is made up of the Japanese companies Nippon Koei Co. Ltd and Nippon Koei LAC Inc, and the French company Sytra.
