Cape Town Metro - Efficient Ventilation for a Safe and Comfortable Public Transport System

The Cape Town Metro project is one of the largest infrastructure developments in the country. TLT-Turbo Africa supplied fan solutions for the ventilation of the tunnels and for the removal of fumes in case of emergency. Our ventilation systems make a significant contribution to passenger comfort and safety.

The Challenge: Safety and Comfort in a Complex Tunnel Network

The Cape Town metro places high demands on ventilation. It was not only a question of daily air circulation, but also the ability to quickly and effectively remove smoke, and toxic gases in the event of an emergency, such as a fire. Our solution had to ensure both operational safety and passenger comfort.

Our solution: Efficient tunnel ventilators with emergency function

TLT-Turbo Africa developed tunnel fans that not only provide constant and efficient ventilation during normal operation, but also enable rapid smoke removal in the event of an emergency. These advanced ventilation systems ensure passenger safety in all scenarios and maximize the energy efficiency of the entire system.

Results: A Safer Public Transport System and Improved Passenger Comfort

By installing our fans in the tunnels of the Cape Town metro, the project not only raised safety standards to a new level. It also improved passenger comfort. Our ventilation solutions contribute to air quality and temperature control, ensuring that the metro can operate safely and efficiently in all conditions.
