    Planning and Procurement of an Urban People Mover System in Doha, West-Bay


    Doha, the capital of the State of Qatar is experiencing an unprecedented growth and development, and the need to move people quickly and efficiently in the West Bay area, site of major hotels, residential and office towers as well as a Convention Center and a major shopping mall, has become a pressing need. A modern underground Automated People Mover (APM) system has been selected to facilitate passenger movement. Procurement of the APM will follow a conventional design-build competitive procurement for the Operating System, while the civil portion (tunnel, stations and M&SF) will either be awarded to a nominated Contractor or advertised for competitive procurement. The APM system will consist in 10,000 m of dual track underground tunnel and 19 stations. Cars will generally be configured into three-car consists. A car will be dedicated to VIPs and family, while the rest of the cars will be dedicated to other passengers. This paper provides an overview of the APM system and discusses its key planning, design, implementation and procurement elements.
