Alstom announces that it has signed a contract renewal with Denver International Airport to operate and maintain their Innovia Automated People Mover (APM) system over the course of seven years. The new contract will run from January 1, 2025, to December 31, 2032. The contract will employ 91 Alstom team members at Denver International Airport, and is valued at EUR 218 million.
Alstom employees will provide twenty-four hour a day, seven-day-a-week maintenance and operations for Denver’s Automated People Mover system. These services include the operations and dispatching of the APMs. Alstom will provide maintenance of the vehicles and the 1.2 mile of loop track; power and electrification; signs, signals, and station platform doors; and the communications systems. The contract scope includes cleaning services for the interior and exterior of the trains; tunnel floor cleaning, pressure washing, and floor drainage; facilities and platform doors; and the collection and disposition of hazardous waste.
“Alstom is proud to be Denver International Airport’s partner of choice as they continue on their journey to modernize and expand air train service at one of the busiest airports in the world. Our expertise in the operations and maintenance of automated people movers allows us to deliver frequent, safe and comfortable service for travellers from around the world,” said Michael Keroullé, President of Alstom Americas.
“Denver International Airport’s new operations and maintenance agreement with Alstom is one of many steps we’re taking to enhance the reliability and passenger experience of the train that moves people between the terminal and concourse. As a growing airport, it’s crucial that we provide a consistent service, especially as we continue our work toward accommodating 100 million annual passengers,” said Matthew Robb, Senior Vice President of Technical Operations for Denver International Airport.
Alstom recently entered a new chapter in its 30-year relationship with Denver International Airport by providing new Innovia APM R vehicles, which went into service in July 2024. Manufactured by Alstom, these train cars increased capacity, efficiency, and comfort for people navigating the airport.
Alstom has been providing operations and maintenance services for the airport’s Automated People Mover system since the airport opened in 1994. Across all our Innovia APM customers in the U.S., we average a performance of 99.5% fleet availability, through 24/7 operations and maintenance services. |
