Legtaifiya (The Pearl) LRT underground transit station in Qatar

Light Rail Transit is one of the transport investments to be ready for the FIFA World Cup in Qatar in 2022. The task of the Cundall team was to design the station of a multi-level interchange between the fast tram (LRT) and the underground (MRT).

Our task was to carry out a series of analyzes confirming the fulfillment of the capacity conditions of the transfer station both during normal use and in the event of the need to evacuate passengers. We also verified the entire documentation of the station in terms of parallel compliance with the specifications for LRT and MRT investments.
