First Tram Operations Limited joins the Global Light Rail Portal, as more operators turn to data-driven decision making.
Rail Intel has announced that First Tram Operations Limited, a leading UK operator, has joined the Global Light Rail Portal, the industry’s only real-time intelligence platform for light rail and metro systems worldwide.
‘Light rail operations are by their very nature isolated’ notes Ben Groome, Service Delivery Director at First Tram Operations Limited, “and we actively seek to use the best information to benchmark systems globally to identify best practices and ensure we deliver the best, efficient service. The Global Light Rail Portal gives us early visibility into all new project and tenders, detailed information on every system across the globe so we can reduce our research time and improve our operational planning.’’
Andy Lucas, C.O.O of Rail Intel, “We’re delighted to welcome First Tram Operations Limited to the Global Light Rail Portal. As a forward-thinking operator, they recognise the power of accurate, real-time data in improving performance, planning with confidence, and staying ahead of industry change. This partnership reflects how operators are increasingly relying on data-led insights to drive decision-making and deliver better outcomes for passengers.”
With innovation and efficiency high on the agenda for transport authorities and operators, the Portal helps organisations compare network performance, identify opportunities for optimisation, and track emerging projects worldwide.
By centralising global data and insights in one digital platform, the Portal empowers operators to anticipate opportunities, mitigate risks, and plan for sustainable growth.
