Smart Mobility Maintenance Facilities

Alstom, a global leader in smart and sustainable mobility, has opened a premier maintenance facility in Motala, Sweden. This state-of-the-art centre is dedicated to providing comprehensive maintenance services for its Traxx Universal locomotives. The facility integrates a range of capabilities, including routine servicing, extensive repairs, specialized wheelset and bogie maintenance, as well as support for advanced signalling systems. The design of the Traxx Universal locomotives—with their modular construction, energy efficiency, and reliability—supports significant reductions in carbon dioxide emissions, aligning with the broader objective of sustainable transportation across both freight and passenger sectors.

The establishment of this facility in Motala represents a strategic expansion of Alstom's maintenance network within Europe. By centralizing maintenance operations, the initiative aims to enhance operational efficiency and reduce downtime through both preventive and corrective services. The integration of advanced technological systems within the facility supports improved service delivery and underpins long-term reliability of the locomotives. This development forms a key component of Alstom’s broader strategy to advance sustainable smart mobility and contribute to more environmentally responsible rail transportation.
