Chennai Metro | CMRL plans to run driverless trains in phase 2 project

Chennai : In less than 10 years, metro rail commuters will be able to enjoy a driver’s view from a metro train as Chennai Metro Rail Ltd (CMRL) is planning to introduce driverless trains in the city along the lines that will be built under phase 2. The trains will operate completely on automatic mode while personnel from the operations control centre (OCC) monitor overall operations. A metro rail official said the ministry of housing and urban affairs was in the process of finalising a policy that would give metro rail operators in the country operational guidelines for driverless trains.
the policy will include the procedure for safety certifications and the list of documents required to be submitted for operating such trains. CMRL will lay down operational procedure for mitigation during emergencies and provide train specifications.

“These trains will not have driver’s cabin. Instead, passengers will be able to stand at the end of the train,”
the official said. Officials said driverless trains will reduce human error. “Driverless trains will be safe and reliable. In case of emergencies, OCC will immediately take over,” the official said. Phase-2 of the project will cover a distance of 108km with 104 stations in three corridors at a cost of Rs 44,000 crores. CMRL has submitted a detailed project report to the Centre for approval and is likely to sign an agreement with Japan International Cooperation Agency for funding in the first quarter of 2018. The phase is expected to be completely operational in 10 years. Metro rail officials said the absence of an operator will be replaced by a number of safety features that ensure smooth running of the trains.Basic features may include CCTV cameras to monitor critical systems in and out of the trains including the overhead electric (OHE) cables, improved communication systems for commuters to directly talk to staff in OCC, centralized traffic control signalling systems instead of block signalling system that is in use currently. Officials said even in phase-1, train operators have little work to do, as operations are mostly controlled from OCC. “At present, the train operator only operates the doors of the train and clicks a ‘start’ button for the train to move. These are minor parts of the operations that can be done from the OCC,” an official said. “During non-peak hours, we make the operators run the trains on manual mode because we want them to be trained,” the official added.

SC urged to strike down MRT, LRT fare hike

MANILA Philippines: The party-list organization Bayan Muna asked the Supreme Court (SC) on Thursday, November 23, to resolve its almost-3-year-old petition to nullify the fare increase for Metro Manila’s train systems and to have commuters refunded
Bayan Muna, the petitioner, asks the Supreme Court to resolve the petitition it filed in January 2015 to nullify the transportation department order for a fare increase for the train systems. File photo by Mark Zaludes/Rappler.
“The recent accidents” involving the Metro Rail Transit 3 (MRT3) and Light Rail Transit (LRT) lines 1 and 2 are proof that the fare increases ordered by the Aquino administration did not improve the condition of the trains.
“Despite the much-questioned and much-protested fare hike, [the trains systems] continue to give [their] passengers poor and unsatisfactory service,” said the petitioner.“It continues to experience technical problems that endanger the safety of the riding public.

News about its malfunctions has now become so common and complaints from the public have been increasing,” the motion read.In January 2015″ Bayan Muna filed the petition with the SC “saying Department Order Number 2014-04 of the Department of Transportation and Communication (now Department of Transportation) was against the Constitution.The department order allows an additional P11 to the base fare of both the MRT and the LRT, with an additional P1 for every kilometer. Four other petitions seeking the same relief were filed after.The petitioners also said then Transportation Secretary Emilio Abaya had no quasi-judicial power to determine fare rates for the trains – it was the Land Transportation and Franchising Board that had that power.“In almost three years of this fare hike, we saw that nothing significant happened to the supposed service improvement in the MRT3/LRT Lines,” the motion read.Aquino spokesman Edwin Lacierda said in 2015 that increasing the fare was the “right thing to do” – because it meant lessening government subsidy for the train fares in Metro Manila, so more funds will go to projects in the Visayas and Mindanao.“From P12 billion, we are lessening that subsidy to P10 billion. So of those P2 billion that we can save, we are going to allocate the resources outside of [Manila] in other areas like Visayas and Mindanao. I know that it’s difficult for those who are riding the public to see that,” Lacierda said then.

Kochi Metro | KMRL expects to reach Thripunithura| by December 2020

Kochi: While this is its internal deadline, it may take up to December 2019 to complete all the works and do trial runs, official sources said. The 95-metre-long balanced cantilever structure being built over the tracks at the Ernakulam Junction railway station will be ready by August 2018. Pending works, beginning with reconstruction of the Champakkara bridge into a four-lane structure, and extending the metro viaduct on the 1-km stretch up to Pettah would be over by June 2020, if land was handed over by December as scheduled, they said.Completing the 1.5-km-long Pettah-SN Junction corridor would take another six months (December 2020) if land was made available in another six months. The subsequent shifting of utility pipelines and cables would take another six months.The DMRC has already awarded the work to reconstruct the Champakkara bridge. But piling has not begun due to the delay in land acquisition and rehabilitation of traders from the adjacent market.The bridge can be realised in another 30 months (by June 2020) if land is made available by the district administration. Constructing the bridge is the most critical task in the entire corridor the sources said.The contractor shortlisted recently to execute pending works on the MG Road-Pettah corridor, CVCC, has deployed three hydraulic rigs at Ernakulam South and two at Thykoodam for piling. Two more rigs will be mobilised within a fortnight for piling for the metro station near Ernakulam Junction railway station and within the station premises.Meanwhile, DMRC is readying to commence piling at Vyttila Junction within a fortnight, to take the metro viaduct from SA Road to the Vyttila Mobility Hub. The viaduct will stretch over the six-lane flyover proposed by the PWD at the junction. Priority will be accorded to building a pillar located near the flyover.Faced with pressure from the DMRC, the contracting firm Era Ranken has begun launching pier caps in the 1.20-km-long viaduct being built on the Vyttila Hub-Kunnara Park stretch. Inordinate delay by the firm in completing the work had invited much criticism.

Coimbatore Metro | Experts suggest three corridors interlink at Gandhipuram

Coimbatore: A week ago, when TOI came out with its refreshed edition, experts had pointed out that one of the pressing needs of the city was an efficient public transport system. While a bus rapid transport system announced by the Coimbatore Corporation has a taken a back seat, chief minister Edapadi K Palanisami’s announcement that a feasibility study will be conducted for a metro in the city has lifted Coimbatoreans’ hopes.Former chairman of the Confederation of Indian Industry K Ilango said they had come out with a development plan for the city that spoke about the need for a public transport system. Tabled in December 2014, it stated that the city’s only mode of public transport was the government bus service. The survey said most Coimbatoreans were unhappy with Experts suggest that a metro service should be planned keeping in mind that the city is expanding in all directions. “There could be three corridors and all of them can intersect at Gandhipuram. One line can be from Neelambur to Madukkarai, the other from Sulur to Bharathiar University and the third line from Narasimhanaickenpalaym to Echanari,” said principal architect of Arun & Associates P Arun Prasad.Arun said Gandhipuram should be the interchanging station. “Gandhipuram has three bus stands. It helps commuters taking a bus to also take the metro,” he said. Asked if it was possible to have one interjection for three corridors, Arun said, “Yes, it should be feasible. I have seen stations with three lines interjecting in Munich, Germany and in South Korea.”the system as it was slow and had poor connectivity.“There are six arterial roads along which all major development has happened. They are Avinashi Road, Mettupalayam Road, Trichy Road, Palakkad Road, Pollachi Road and Sathyamangalam Road. All these are highways,” said Ilango. “The state government should look at these roads while drawing a plan for a metro service,” he added.

Speaking at a press conference on Thursday, Maha-Metro managing director Brijesh Dixit said that the company is working on a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Indian Railway, mainly Central Railways, for interlinking stations of both Pune Metro and railways at four points.The Pune Metro’s rail route Pimpri–Chinchwad to Swargate will connect Kasarwadi, Khadki and Shivajinagar railway stations and the Vanaz to Ramwadi metro route will connect with the Pune station.“The Shivajinagar Metro station has been planned underground. Hence, Maha-Metro will erect a subway to connect to the Shivajinagar Metro route. Commuters would need to go one floor below to catch the metro from Shivajinagar railway station. Other metro stations will be at the level of foot overbridges,” Dixit said.According to Dixit, Maha-Metro is planning the Shivajinagar Metro station near state transport bus stand which will help to connect with the Shivajinagar bus stand, Pune Mahanagar Parivahan Mahamandal Limited (PMPML) bus stop and Shivajinagar railway station. Commuters from other stations will directly come to the metro station.The underground metro will run from Range Hills to Swargate and its first station is Shivajinagar and next is civil court.The Maha-Metro head said that they have completed primary discussion with the Indian Railway. Both the agencies would bear the cost of connecting the stations. As both the Indian Railways and Metro are helping each other and getting more commuters, agencies will share the cost equally.It is planned that commuters would get tickets at both railway and metro platforms. Railways would open their ticket window at metro stations’ entry point and later commuters can get both metro as well as railway ticket.
