urban transit systems
Shaping the future of city mobility through integrated and sustainable transit systems
Urban transit is the cornerstone of sustainable, inclusive and efficient cities. At Sener, we have more than 50 years of experience designing and delivering urban rail and bus systems across five continents. Our portfolio includes metros, light rail, monorails, people movers, cable, fluvial and bus rapid transit (BRT) systems. We deliver end-to-end engineering for every component of urban mobility — from tunnels and stations to depots, systems integration and automation — always with a strong focus on innovation, safety and environmental integration.
From Barcelona to Riyadh, São Paulo to Abu Dhabi, we have contributed to the transformation of public transport in major cities around the globe. Our engineering covers all project phases, from feasibility studies and design to implementation, operation and maintenance strategies.
How we support sustainable urban mobility
We deliver integrated services across the entire spectrum of urban transit systems, including subways, LRT, monorails, cable, BRT and people movers. We also design multimodal hubs, depots and maintenance facilities, ensuring seamless integration with urban development and transport networks.
We combine multidisciplinary expertise — civil works, architecture, systems, rolling stock and operations — with a strong track record in delivering complex projects in urban environments. Our ability to manage interfaces between infrastructure, systems and city dynamics allows us to ensure performance, accessibility and long-term value.
We design urban transit as human-centered infrastructure, prioritizing user experience, accessibility, safety and seamless integration with urban development and multimodal networks. This approach makes our projects more resilient and adaptable to future mobility demands.
We cover the entire lifecycle of urban transit systems. Our teams define tunnel alignments, station design, system architecture and rolling stock interfaces and manage construction, testing and commissioning. They combine civil works, signaling and digital platforms to create systems that are scalable, automation-ready and environmentally aligned. We integrate BIM, RAMS and system simulations to anticipate operational behavior and optimize design from day one.
Whether building new lines or expanding existing networks, we offer engineering that adapts to local topography, passenger demand and technical complexity. Our solutions are scalable, automation-ready and aligned with the sustainability objectives of each client and city.
