About Transdev North America

Transdev North America is a major private-sector operator of public transportation systems, including rail, bus, and shuttle services. With a strong presence in Florida, Transdev provides infrastructure support and maintenance services for heavy rail and metro systems.

At this West Palm Beach facility, Transdev required a spill containment solution that would effectively manage incidental fuel and oil spills from railcar fueling and maintenance activities. SafeRack’s ability to provide customized solutions tailored to the unique needs of rail operations made us the ideal partner for this project.

Why SafeRack’s Track Pans?

To ensure Transdev’s operations remain environmentally responsible and regulatory-compliant, SafeRack selected a modular containment pan system that offers:

• High Strength & Corrosion Resistance: Made from fiberglass, galvanized steel, and stainless steel, ensuring longevity in tough rail environments.


• H-20 Loading Capacity: Designed to withstand drive-over applications, making it ideal for heavy-duty railcar maintenance yards.


• Flexible Configurations: A center pan captures spills between the tracks, while outrigger pans prevent leakage from reaching the surrounding environment.


• Integrated Drainage System: Optional drainage manifold and drain ports allow easy fluid collection and transfer.
