Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Jilin-made explosion-proof train introduced in Tel Aviv
The light rail vehicle, LRV, is a low-capacity, low-speed urban rail transit. It runs either on the ground along exclusive rights-of-way or dedicated railway. Light rail systems are getting popular recently to ease congestion and provide environmentally friendly transportation option in urban cities with relatively low capital costs.
Tel Aviv is the second largest city in Israel with a population of over 400,000 and the economic and technological center of the country. The city signed a contract with a Chinese firm to build and maintain its first light rail system in 2021. Because of continual Palestinian political violence, the city wanted the light rail cars explosion-proof. The vehicles’ windows are blast resistant, the underframe structure is fire resistant, and the door is impenetrable to intruders. The light rail vehicles are also traffic resistant. Thanks to the traffic lights control system, they travel without stopping at red lights.
It surely sounds like a state-of-art, Israeli-standard transportation system. But will it be free from terrorist attacks? Will passengers go through a security gate or pass a metal detector for every ride?
Enjoy reading the article and learn about this explosion-proof light rail vehicle.
