AT A GLANCE
The foundation for electric cars and battery assembly at Audi is laid at the Audi Brussels plant.
STRAIL is now also present at this key plant for electric mobility.
On the factory site, STRAIL has installed its most innovative level crossing system – veloSTRAIL.
The inner panel system eliminates the flange groove and thus also a source of danger. This is particularly important for factory traffic, which also relies a lot on bicycles to get around. This is made possible by the interchangeable flangeway element made of virgin rubber, which closes the flange groove for individual traffic, but the train is not affected.
