VAL
VAL is a type of automatic
rubber-tired people mover technology, based on an invention by Professor Robert Gabillard. It was designed in the early
1980s by
French Matra, for the then new metro system in
Lille. The
acronym was originally for Villeneuve d'Ascq à Lille (
Villeneuve d'Ascq to Lille), the route of the first line to be projected (and inaugurated). It now officially stands for Véhicule Automatique Léger (automatic light vehicle).In contrast to some other driverless metro systems like the
Docklands Light Railway or
Vancouver's
SkyTrain, the VAL design uses platforms that are separated from the rollways by a glass partition, to prevent waiting passengers from straying or falling onto the rollways.
Platform screen doors, which are produced by
Swiss glass door manufacturer Kaba Gilgen AG, embedded in these partitions open in synchrony with the train doors when a train stops at the platform.
