In The Hague, catenary poles play a key role in public transport. They not only keep the overhead lines of trams and RandstadRail under tension, but are also indispensable in the shift towards fully electric and sustainable mobility in the city.

Strength and aesthetics
Stay poles must withstand enormous tensile forces to keep the overhead lines taut. At the same time, they stand in the heart of the living environment and help shape the streetscape. That is why VDL Mast Solutions designs and manufactures poles that are not only technically reliable, but also aesthetically suited to their surroundings.

Tailored solutions for complex projects
Overhead line projects such as those in The Hague are often highly complex. Our project managers actively collaborate with clients and develop bespoke solutions. From calculations through to design and production, everything is carried out in-house, in accordance with the applicable European standards and the client’s specific requirements.

Multifunctional capabilities
In addition to their primary function, tension masts can also serve as supports for other applications, such as catenary lighting, signage, antennas or even advertising. In doing so, they contribute to a more sustainable and multifunctional public space.
