Sando to build the new Seville Tramway

The Governing Board of Seville City Council has commissioned Sando Construcción, in a joint venture with Conacon Sando and Althenia Sando, to carry out the first works on the tramway for 20.7 million euros, a project co-financed by European funds.

The tramway project aims to create a new platform reserved exclusively for zero-emission electric buses, offering a sustainable and efficient mobility alternative to the heart of Seville’s capital.

Sando’s work focuses on the first phase, constructing an 8.2-kilometre route to connect the Santa Justa Railway station with the neighbourhoods of Seville East and Torreblanca. For this section, one lane reserved for buses will be 4 metres wide, and the rest will be at least 3 metres wide.

The works will include constructing fourteen stops between each of its ends and will be carried out with a view to universal accessibility both at the stops and in the rest of the urban development work. These works will enable a service providing transport coverage to more than 100,000 people living in Seville East-Alcosa-Torreblanca’s district.

A sustainable transport infrastructure

The execution of this project in a joint venture between three of Sando’s companies will allow it to offer Seville City Council the high technical specialisation of each of its teams: Sando Construcción for the execution of sustainable infrastructures, Conacon Sando specialising in urban conservation works and specific energy works, and Althenia Sando for the planned environmental actions.

Teams that have led major engineering projects in transport infrastructures, both nationally and internationally.
