Company Profile

TransdevTSL

TransdevTSL, formerly MetroLink, was a 50/50 joint venture between the old Transdev and Transfield Services that operated trams in Melbourne, ferries in Brisbane and buses in Sydney. The joint venture was dissolved in December 2010 when Transfield Services sold its shares to Transdev. These three operations were the old Transdev's only Australian operations. Two of them would later be taken over by Veolia Transdev, formed from the merger of old Transdev and Veolia Transport in March 2011.

History
Shorelink Buses in Sydney bus showing the remnants of the TransdevTSL name in September 2014 In 2005 Transfield Services purchased a 50% interest in Transdev-owned Shorelink bus operation in Sydney. Rebranding on all buses took place in 2008 when Shorelink was renamed TransdevTSL Shorelink Buses. In December 2010 the joint venture was dissolved, with the company renamed Transdev Shorelink. The operations were absorbed into Transdev NSW in 2014. Melbourne trams In August 1999 MetroLink Victoria, a joint venture between Transfield Services (50%) Transdev (30%) and Egis (20%), commenced operating the Yarra Trams Melbourne tram franchise. Transdev bought out Egis' shareholding in 2000. In April 2004 it took over the M>Tram franchise from National Express resulting in it operating the entire Melbourne tram network. TransdevTSL was shortlisted to bid for the franchise for renewal but lost to Keolis Downer who took over in November 2009. Brisbane Ferries In November 2003, Metrolink Queensland, a joint venture between Transfield and Transdev, was awarded a contract by the Brisbane City Council to operate the Brisbane Ferries service. The operation was renamed TransdevTSL Brisbane Ferries. In November 2010 this was extended for a further 10 years. The joint venture dissolved one month later. The ferry operation was rebranded Transdev Brisbane Ferries in July 2013. ==References==
