PRESENT TRANSPORT SCENARIO IN MUMBAI

11

million people travel daily by Public Transport (share of PT more than

90%) Many areas in city and suburbs are not served by rail system Suburban rail traffic increased by 6 times while the capacity increased by only 2.3 times 4500 passengers travel per train against the carrying capacity of 1750 resulting in unbearable overcrowding

PROBLEMS WITH TRAINS

Train transportation is the life line of Mumbai

Rains- Water logging on tracks, Trains run late

Over filled by 3-4 times its seating capacity Sunday -Mega blocks Strike of motor men

WHAT IS AN MRTS?

A rapid transit, underground, subway, elevated railway, metro or metropolitan railway system Is a passenger transport system in an urban area with a high capacity and frequency Indian MRTS:o Metro o Mono rail

Existing Metros:oKolkata oDelhi oChennai

oBangluru

WHY MRTS
Faster

Higher Capacity
Transport large amounts of people quickly over short distances Little land use Reduce pollution levels & earn carbon credits

OUR PROPOSAL..
A Metro rail system, which would be cost effective for the Mumbai multitude Provide mass transit services to people within a distance of 1 to 2 km, and to serve the areas not connected by the existing Suburban Rail network Focus on the development of an environmentally friendly system

UNDERGROUND METRO SYSTEM

An Underground Metro will make room for future expansion of multi-level Metro lines in all directions This could be achieved over a period of time with minimum disruption to the daily lives of citizens Relief from traffic congestion

Time savings in transport

No displacement or demolition necessary It would also minimize the potential disruption caused to citizens during the project execution phase Over the ground option where underground construction is not possible

 No Land acquisition and litigation costs Noise levels reduced Architectural & Service quality of urban environment Safety and security in urban environment Operation and maintenance cost of underground system very less because it is unaffected by bad weather conditions Underground metro electrification system has less number of components and very simple design structures as compare to overhead electrification system Underground metro projects are easily funded by World Bank with very low interest rates at free of Custom Duty and because they reduce large amount of Co2 emission done by vehicles

WORLD CLASS FEATURES

A central station.. like Rajiv Chowk in Delhi that could connect to major parts of the city (Andheri)

Automatic doors with Obstruction Detection

Secondary air suspension and brakes controlled by microprocessor In order to keep it affordable, it could have AC/non AC coaches A display that would indicate which side the platform is going to come on-train announcements in English, Hindi and Marathi Route maps and LCD display systems in every coach Fare collection through contactless, stored-value smartcards Escalators, elevators and tactile tiles to guide the visually impaired from station entrances to trains Subway facilities in all the underground metro stations Many of the stations equipped for rainwater collection as part of their environmental policy

MUMBAI METRO
Total Project cost - Rs 2356 Cr. First phase - 2006-11 Commencement of Operations- 2009-10 Mass transit corridor from Andheri to Ghatkopar First MRTS project in India being implemented on Public Private Partnership (PPP)

DMRC prepared the master plan for Mumbai Metro

Private Party Reliance Energy Ltd .

EXPERIENCE OF DELHI METRO

Savings in maintenance cost of vehicles by Rs. 218 crores, fuel saving worth Rs. 800 crores and saving in road maintenance cost of Rs. 288 crores Emission savings of 3,968 tonnes People in the city save 66 minutes every day on an average by travelling to and fro by the Metro rail Earned the Delhi metro train annual carbon credits of a net value of 47 Crore.

Owing to the presence of the metro rail in Delhi pollution level has gone down by 6.3 lakh tones annually
