Larsen & Toubro (L&T), through its Transportation Infrastructure business vertical and in consortium with Japan's Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI), has secured a large order to design and build the Automated People Mover (APM) System for Phase 1 of Al Maktoum International Airport in Dubai.

Ramkumar S, Executive Vice President & Head of Transportation Infrastructure at L&T, commented that the project, with its challenging milestones, advanced technologies, and multiple system interfaces, exemplifies the scale and complexity of integrated APM Rail Systems that L&T is positioned to deliver. He highlighted the synergy with MHI's proven APM Systems and L&T's extensive experience in integrated systems, supported by world-class Engineering Designs Centre, to execute such projects with a strong focus on safety and quality.
