40. The history of planning a Metro Project for Delhi dates back to 70's. The Central Road Research Institute (CRRI) undertook the first exhaustive study on traffic and travel characteristics of Delhi in 1969-70.
41. By examining several alternatives, it recommended for a Mass Rapid Transit Network for Delhi. Metropolitan Transport Team (MTT), Indian Railways, has reviewed the above schemes.HISTORY
42. MTT sought for some modifications to recommendations of CRRI and planned for a well knit Mass Rapid Transit System for the capital city of India. The system comprised of 36 Km of underground corridors aligned two axes North-South and East-West Corridors and 96 Kms of surface rail corridors. Metropolitan Transport Project (MTP-R, set up by the Ministry of Railways, Government of India) prepared an engineering plan to construct the MTR system. Delhi Development Authority (DDA) prepared a perspective plan for Delhi (MPD-2001) in 1984 and recommended for a multi modal transport system comprising of 200 km of Light Rail Transit System, 10 Km of Tramway, an extension to surface rail system and extensive road network. The Urban Arts Commission suggested some modifications to the proposal of DDA and recommended for the development of the existing Ring Railway with three radial underground MRT corridors.
43. Due to rapid growth especially along the western and eastern parts of the city, a study group was appointed by the Ministry of Railways, Govt. of India to recommend a precise alignment for the East-West corridor and in 1987 further appointed a Task Force for assessing the choice of exact construction technology. Feasibility Report on Integrated Multi Modal Mass Rapid Transport System of Delhi (IMMRTS) prepared by RITES recommended for three-component system comprising of Rail corridors, Metro corridors and dedicated bus way totaling to 184.5 Km and further addition of 14 km increased to 198.5 km. The total network contains 16 sections to be implemented in a sequence based on passenger kilometer carried per kilometer length of each section. The first phase of the network, now (commissioned) comprises of 65.11 km of route length with 13.01 km underground called Metro corridor and 52.10 km surface
44.
45. Requires 1/5th energy per passenger km. compared to road – based system.
46. Causes no air pollution in the city and lesser noise levels.
47. Occupies no road space if underground and only about 2 metre width of the road, along central median, if elevated. advantages
48.
49. Is more reliable, comfortable and safer than road based system.
50.
51. Phase II of the network comprises 128 km (80 mi) of route length and 79 stations, with the first section opened in June 2008 and completed in 2010.
52. Phases III (112 km) and IV (108.5 km) are planned to be completed by 2015 and 2021 respectively, with the network spanning 413 km (257 mi) by then.network
53. As of February 23, 2011, the whole of Phase-I and parts of Phase-II are complete, with the network comprising six lines with 140 metro stations and a total length of 183.7 km (114.1 mi). Current routes
