About Metrotech
Metrotech is a specialist software company dedicated to delivering smarter, safer, and more efficient solutions for the light rail sector.
Driving Transformation in Light Rail with Smart Technology
About us
At Metrotech, we design and deliver technology that makes light rail networks safer, smarter, and more efficient. Our focus is on creating solutions that solve real operational challenges – from managing track access and Authority to Work Permits with Permit+ to modernising passenger journeys with our eTicketing Software, Transit+.
How we work
What sets us apart is the way we work. We collaborate closely with operators, engineers, and decision makers to understand their needs in detail, then build software that’s practical, reliable, and easy to use. Whether it’s digitising critical safety processes or streamlining ticketing for passengers, we’re committed to helping light rail networks run more smoothly today and adapt with confidence for the future.
Our Consultative Approach
We work side by side with operators, engineers, and decision makers to understand real challenges and design solutions that fit your network.
Smart Software for the Light Rail Sector
Manual processes slow teams down, create gaps in oversight, and make it harder to maintain safety and compliance. By partnering with Metrotech, operators can replace paper forms, phone calls, and spreadsheets with connected platforms designed for light rail. The result is less duplication, fewer errors, and more time for staff to focus on higher-value tasks.
Initiating a digital transformation project with Metrotech isn’t just about new software — it’s about unlocking long-term operational improvements. Our solutions provide real-time visibility, auditable workflows, and seamless communication between the field and the control room.
