In July 2006, it was announced that two new French tram systems would be using APS over part of their networks. These are Tramway d'Angers and Tramway de Reims, with both systems opening in 2011. A couple of months later, it was announced that Orléans would use APS on a section of its second tram line. The planned Al Sufouh Tramway in Dubai will use APS.
