Executive Summary

 The over burden of traffic in Delhi has forced the govt. to think of alternative plan
for mass rapid transit.

 Providing a MRT system with world class facility and highly technically
advanced MRT such as Delhi Metro is a magnificent example of a successful
project that India has executed.

 There were many challenges faced by the team to deliver the project on time ,
within the budget and maintain the quality standard.

 The project management tools & methodology has been implemented in the Delhi
Metro project in accordance to compliance with the project.

 The execution of the project with the team working with dedication &
commitment has made the project successful.

 Delhi, in terms of air pollution, is ranked among the most polluted cities in the
world. The ambient air quality monitoring is carried out regularly by Central
Pollution Control Board and Delhi Pollution Control Committee and now because
of Delhi Metro ,the pollution is being reduced in the Delhi.

Introduction

 Delhi Metro was meant to solve Delhi’s traffic problems, which had become
unmanageable.

 Planning for the metro started in 1984 when the Delhi Development
Authority and the Urban Arts Commission came up with a proposal for
developing a multi-modal transport system for the city.

 The first step to build the metro system in the city was taken in early 1990’s.

 In 1995 the Govt. of India(GOI) & the Govt. of the National Capital Territory of
Delhi(GNCTD) formed the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Ltd.(DMRC) to
construct the Delhi Metro.

 It was considered as a social sector project.

 E. Sreedharan was appointed the Managing Director(MD)of DMRC the project


Manager for phase 1in November 1997.

 Work on Line 1 of Phase 1 started in October 1998.

 Delhi Metro was certified as the first metro rail and rail-based system in the
world to get "carbon credits for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Ltd. Page 6


Background Note

 Metro system were generally considered as a transport option where the


population of the city has crossed 1 million mark.

 By the early 1990’s Delhi had more registered vehicles than Mumbai ,Kolkata &
Chennai put together.

 The automobiles in Delhi contributed more than 2/3rd of the atmospheric


pollution in Delhi.(ICMR,2006).

 There was an urgent need to improve both the quality and availability of mass
transport services in Delhi.

 All the traffic study of Delhi carried out by various entities such as Central Road
Research Institute (CRRI) and 35 more studies recommended Mass rapid transit
system (MRTS) to solve Delhi’s problems.

 The study to develop MRTS for Delhi was undertaken by Rail India Technical &
Economical services Ltd. (RITES) in 1989 and was completed in 1991.

 RITES established in 1974 is the consultancy wing of the Indian Railways. It


largely operates in the fields of transport, infrastructure & related technologies.

 RITES in 1995 submitted a Detailed Project Report(DPR) & recommended the


component transit system comprising rail corridors(surface/elevated),metro
corridors(underground).

 RITES further recommended sequential construction of the total network because


of the high costs associated with the project.

 The complete network was to have 16 lines sections with higher projected
passenger traffic densities to be constructed first.

About Delhi Metro

The Delhi Metro is a metro system serving Delhi and its satellite cities
of Faridabad, Gurgaon, Bahadurgarh, Noida and Ghaziabad in the National Capital
Region of India. Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Limited (DMRC), a state-owned company
with equal equity participation from the Government of India and the Government of
Delhi, built and operates the Delhi Metro. It is the second oldest metro in India after
the Kolkata Metro.

The Delhi Metro is the world's 10th longest metro system in length and 16th largest in
ridership. A member of CoMET, the network consists of seven colour-coded regular lines
and the faster Airport Express line, with a total length of 288 kilometres (179 mi)
serving 208 stations (including 6 on Airport Express line). The system has a mix of
underground, at-grade, and elevated stations using both broad-gauge and standard-gauge.

The power output is supplied by 25-kilovolt, 50-hertz alternating


current through overhead catenary. The trains are usually of six and eight coaches
length. DMRC operates over 3,000 trips daily, with first trains starting at around 05:00
and last at 23:30. In the financial year 2016–17, the Delhi Metro had an average daily
ridership of 2.76 million passengers and served 100 crore (1.0 billion) riders in total
during the year.

The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation was certified by the United Nations in 2011 as the first
metro rail and rail-based system in the world to get "carbon credits for reducing
greenhouse gas emissions" and helping in reducing pollution levels in the city by 630,000
tonnes every year.

Planning for the metro started in 1984 when the Delhi Development Authority, and the
Urban Arts Commission came up with a proposal for developing a multi-modal transport
system for the city. Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) was incorporated in May
1995, construction started in 1998, and the first section, on the Red Line, opened in
2002. The development of the network was divided into phases, Phase I containing 3
lines was completed by 2006, and Phase II in 2011. Phase III is scheduled for completion
by 2018 (originally planned for 2016).

Inspection Bay Line


 IBL is the place where train is brought for the maintenance fault detection and
testing.
 It also consists of overhead charged 25 kv power supply to energize the train to
check and rectify high voltage equipment installed in train.---
 Instead of conventional tracks(as seen in metro stations),the lower portion of
train is accessible. This enables the technician to reach under the frame and carry
out repair and maintenance.
 It also has stair case that leads to a raised platform at the height of roof of train.
This enables the technician to reach the roof of train and access roof equipment.

Workshop
 This is the place where major repair works takes place.
 Here various unhealthy parts of the train are dismantled and repair by
technicians.
 It has various tools ,cranes & jack set. For lifting heavy parts and repairing
them.
 Cleaning of parts also occurs here.

Stabling Bay Line


 It is the place where trains are made to stand i.e. it is the parking for trains.
 This place can be utilized for light repair work ,which does not involve high
tension supply.
 It usually has shed ,but it can be an open area also.

Automatic Train Wash Plant


 It is the place where trains are automatically sprayed with water and other
chemical for complete cleaning of metro trains.
 It can be understood as a long passage with walls having water and chemical
spray capability.
 The system gets activated only when the speed of train is less than 5kmph.When
speed is beyond the range the system is not activates and the train just passes by.

Rolling Stock

The Metro uses rolling stock of two different gauges. Phase I lines use 1,676 mm
(5.499 ft) broad gauge rolling stock, while three Phase II lines use 1,435 mm
(4.708 ft) standard gauge rolling stock.

Trains are maintained at seven depots at Khyber Pass and Sultanpur for the Yellow Line,
Mundka for the Green Line, Najafgarh and Yamuna Bank for the Blue Line, Shastri Park
for the Red Line, and Sarita Vihar for the Violet Line.

Maglev trains were initially considered for some lines of Phase 3, but DMRC decided to
continue with conventional rail in August 2012.

As on 31 March 2015, the Company has a total of 1306 coaches (220 trains). Apart from
extensions on various existing lines, two new lines viz. Line 7 & 8 are proposed in Phase
III.486 coaches (81 six-car trains) being procured for these two new lines will have an
advance feature in Unattended Train Operation (UTO).

Additional 258 Broad gauge (BG) coaches for Line 1 to 4 and 138 Standard Gauge (SG)
coaches for Line 5 & 6 are proposed to be procured for augmentation/extensions to cater
to the increased traffic. Resultantly, at the end of Phase III, there would be 2188 coaches
(333 trains). Barring a few 4-car trains on Line 5, 93% of the trains would operate either
in 6 car or 8 car configuration at the end of Phase III.

The rolling stock is manufactured by two major suppliers. For the Phase I, the rolling
stock was supplied by a consortium of companies comprising Hyundai Rotem, Mitsubishi
Corporation, and MELCO. The coaches have a very similar look to MTR Rotem EMU,
except with only 4 doors and use sliding doors. The coaches were initially built in South
Korea by ROTEM, then in Bangalore by BEML through a technology
transfer arrangement.These trains consist of four 3.2-metre-wide (10 ft) stainless steel
lightweight coaches with vestibules permitting movement throughout their length and can
carry up to 1500 passengers, with 50 seated and 330 standing passengers per coach. The
coaches are fully air-conditioned, equipped with automatic doors, microprocessor
controlled brakes and secondary air suspension, and are capable of maintaining an
average speed of 32 km/h (20 mph) over a distance of 1.1 km (0.68 mi). The system is
extensible up to eight coaches, and platforms have been designed accordingly.
The rolling stock for Phase II is being supplied by Bombardier Transportation, which has
received an order for 614 cars worth approximately US$1.1 billion. While initial trains
were made in Görlitz, Germany and Sweden, the remainder will be built at Bombardier's
factory in Savli, near Vadodara. These trains are a mix of four-car and six-car consists,
capable of accommodating 1178 and 1792 commuters per train respectively. The coaches
possess several improved features like Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras with
eight-hour backup for added security, charging points in all coaches for cell phones and
laptops, improved air conditioning to provide a temperature of 25 °C (77 °F) even in
packed conditions and heaters for winter.

Standard Gauze

The standard gauge rolling stock is manufactured by BEML at its factory in Bangalore
(Most of these trains are supplied to BEML by Hyundai Rotem). The trains are four-car
consists with a capacity of 1506 commuters per train, accommodating 50 seated and 292
standing passengers in each coach. These trains will have CCTV cameras in and outside
the coaches, power supply connections inside coaches to charge mobiles and laptops,
better humidity control, microprocessor-controlled disc brakes, and will be capable of
maintaining an average speed of 34 km/h (21 mph) over a distance of 1.1 km (0.68 mi).
