ComfortDelGro JV wins contract to operate Stockholm Metro

The contract has a term of 11 years.

The Stockholm Public Transport Administration (Trafikförvaltningen) awarded Connecting Stockholm, a joint venture of SGX-listed ComfortDelGro and Go-Ahead the contract to operate and maintain the Stockholm Metro.

This marks ComfortDelGro's first rail contract in Sweden and its largest rail passenger operation outside of Singapore.

The contract will be for a term of 11 years with operations to start in May 2025.

Connecting Stockholm will manage Stockholm Metro’s 7 lines including 100 stations, 6 depots, and 107 km track.

ComfortDelGro will be responsible for the subway’s customer service, planning and delivery of rail services, and fleet, station, and depot facility maintenance.

The contract also extends Connecting Stockholm to support Trafikförvaltningen to expand the Stockholm Metro in the future.

“We’re delighted to be offered the opportunity to serve the people of Stockholm. This has been a well-run tender process by Trafikförvaltningen and, together with ComfortDelGro, we look forward to working in partnership to deliver our plans over the next 11 years,” Cheng Siak Kian, ComfortDelGro Managing Director and Group CEO said.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
