Bristol Stefconfer Track 2aWhat We Can Do for Bristol LRT Whereas we can provide trackwork, power distribution, and signaling systems we believe that the concept for Bristol is to have and benefit from the environmental sustainability and technical advantage of a 21st-century Ultra Light Self Powered Tram System. This means that Bristol would not require a lineside traction power supply system in the form of a Third Rail, or Overhead Line System. Although our area of expertise does include Overhead Line installation, we do have experience in delivering this type of forward-looking transit solution having worked with, partnered with, and built a successful relationship with the Global Leader in terms of Self Powered Tram Systems. It therefore would be our privilege to limit our potential scope of supply to the installation of the trackwork, including the preparation and construction of the track bed. Bristol
