ongoing

Ricardo has been appointed by the Taipei City Government to provide Independent Verification and Validation (IV&V) services for Phase Two of the Wanda–Shulin line, a driverless metro route under construction in Taipei, Taiwan, for a total of £2.3M. The project involves assessing the electrical and mechanical sub-systems, including rolling stock, infrastructure, communications, and power supply, to ensure they meet the required standards for functionality, quality, and operational safety. The project aims to integrate Phase Two seamlessly with Phase One, creating a modern transit line known as the 'Light Green' line on the Taipei Metro network.
