Reduced fuel consumption.  CHAPTER 1 (Introduction to Metro Systems)  Advantages of Metro Rail:  MOST EFFICIENT:-It is most efficient in terms of energy consumption, space occupancy and numbers transported.  HIGH-CAPACITY CARRIERS – very high volumes of peak hour peak direction trips.  ECO-FRIENDLY – causes no air pollution, much less sound pollution.  LOW ENERGY CONSUMPTION – 20% per passenger km in comparison to road-based systems.  GREATER TRAFFIC CAPACITY – carries as much traffic as 7 lanes of bus traffic or 24 lanes of car traffic (either way).  VERY LOW GROUND SPACE OCCUPATION – 2 meter width only for elevated rail.  FASTER – reduces journey time by 50% to 75%. ROUTE MAP OR STUDIES  ROUTE MAP OR STUDIES  LINES:-  Each rapid transit system consists of one or more lines, or circuits. Each line is serviced by at least one specific route with trains stopping at all or some of the line's stations. Most systems operate several routes, and distinguish them by colors, names, numbering, or a combination thereof. Some lines may share track with each other for a portion of their route or operate solely on their own right-of-way.  NETWORK TOPOLOGIES:- LINE CROSS NETWORK X SHAPED TWO CROSSING PATHS SECANT RADIAL CIRCLE RADIAL  ROUTE MAP OR STUDIES  PASSENGER INFORMATION:-  It includes the information of availability of quantum of passengers and their degree of usage that metro service.  Line having high density of passenger load needs to enhance the number of metro trains and their repetition on that specific route to transfer that crowd.  Also need to gather the information and standby plan for special crowd accumulation on the various occasional days so that the space metro trains are ready to use for transferring that much peoples.  SAFETY AND SECURITY  Compared to other modes of transport, rapid transit has a good safety record, with few accidents. Rail transport is subject to strict safety regulations, with requirements for procedure and maintenance to minimize risk.  High platforms (usually over 1 meter / 3 feet) are a safety risk, as people falling onto the tracks have trouble climbing back. Platform screen doors are used on some systems to eliminate this danger.  BASIC PLANNING & FINANCIALS  Basic Planning:-  It includes the following parameter to investigate for planning the efficient metro project:-  Arborist assessments  Basement Surveys  Geotechnical Investigations  Stage one: Site establishment  Stage two: Service identification  Stage three: Geotechnical drilling  Stage four: Well development  Stage five: Groundwater sampling  Ground surface surveys  Groundwater monitoring:  Laser scanning  Level settlement monitoring  Noise and Vibration  Service Investigations  Visual inspections  BASIC PLANNING & FINANCIALS  FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT:-  METRO RAIL POLICY 2017  The Union Cabinet, in August 2017 approved the New Metro Rail Policy focusing on compact urban development, cost reduction and multi-modal integration. The policy seeks to fulfill rising metro rail aspirations of many cities in a responsible manner.  SALIENT FEATURES OF MATRO RAIL POLICY  It mandatory to include the Public Private Partnership (PPP) component in order to be able to obtain central assistance for new Metro Rail projects.  It has been made mandatory to set up a Urban Metropolitan Transport Authority (UMTA) which would be involved in drafting comprehensive mobility plans for cities, with multi modal integration for efficient exploitation of capacities.  It proposes agencies to be identified by the government for to put in place, a third party assessment mechanism for a thorough assessment of new metro proposals.  To ensure efficient land use and reduce the travel distances, the policy mandates Transit Oriented Development  States will be required to issue corporate bonds in order to enable low debt capital.  The states will be empowered to set up a permanent Fare Fixation Authority for timely revision of fares.  The states must strive to generate maximum non fare revenue through lease of space, advertisement etc to ensure financial viability of the projects  BASIC PLANNING & FINANCIALS  New Metro Rail Policy – Options for Availing Central Assistance:  Metro Projects can be implemented by the States by choosing any of the three options to avail central assistance:  PPP with central assistance under the Viability Gap Funding scheme of the Ministry of Finance.  Grant by Government of India wherein 10% of the project cost will be advanced as a lump sum central assistance.  50-50 equity sharing model between the state and the central governments.  CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  Planning of particular Metro Station  Components of Metro Station  Tracks:-Most rapid transit systems use conventional standard gauge railway track. Since tracks in subway tunnels are not exposed to rain, snow, or other forms of precipitation, they are often fixed directly to the floor rather than resting on ballast, such as normal railway tracks.  For elevated lines, another alternative is the monorail, which can be built either as straddle-beam monorails or as a suspended monorail  Tunnels:-Underground tunnels move traffic away from street level, avoiding delays caused by traffic congestion and leaving more land available for buildings and other uses. In areas of high land prices and dense land use, tunnels may be the only economic route for mass transportation.  CONSTRUCTION METHODS OF TUNNELS:-  In one common method, known as cut-and-cover  Another usual type of tunneling method is called bored tunneling  Conventional Bottom–Up Construction Method. CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  CUT & COVER METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION  CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  CUT & COVER METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION  CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  CUT & COVER METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION  CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  CUT & COVER METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION  CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  STAGES IN CUT & COVER METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION  CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  STAGES IN CUT & COVER METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION  CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  TOP DOWN METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION  CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  TOP DOWN METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION  CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  TOP DOWN METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION  CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  TOP DOWN METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION  CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  TOP DOWN METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION  CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  Underground Tunneling:- CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  CHAPTER 2 PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT  DEPOTS BUILDINGS IN METRO STATIONS
