The main objective of the project is to produce the feasibility study for the two main transport corridors, identified on the north-south and east-west axes of the island. It also aims to propose a heritage enhancement plan for the city of Phuket, using transport projects as levers for urban renewal.
The project team provides technical assistance to the feasibility study of the north-south tram-train corridor, as well as a holistic vision of mobility on the island’s east-west corridor, taking into account technical, economic, financial and institutional aspects. In addition, the consortium offers an integrated urban vision and an expertise on landscape integration and heritage, environmental and social dimensions.
