By extending its tramway network, a metropolis aims to open up certain districts not currently served, and to limit the use of private vehicles in the city center. This project is accompanied by a program of urbanization, urban regeneration and encouragement of the use of active modes of transport along the corridor used by these extensions. Egis is leading the project management consortium and is responsible for the operational management of the project. In this context, Egis led the design of the future tramway maintenance and storage site, in compliance with BIM methodology, while making it compatible with the needs of digital twin operation.

Design of a tramway maintenance and storage facility using BIM methodology, usable as a digital operating twin
Added value
Customer benefits
- Provide access to the digital project model for everyone (not just BIM specialists).
- Provide a suitable medium for exchanges between engineers and architects, and for keeping a geo-localized log of “open points”.
Egis contributions
- Operational management.
- Use BIM to design the future tramway maintenance and storage facility.
- Use a digital model to visualize and anticipate the operating and maintenance needs of this atypical building, which will also house a 730-space park-and-ride facility.
- Use a collaborative BIM platform, based on the “Bimsync” solution.
