CM Uddhav Thackeray flags off trial run for Mumbai Metro 2A & 7 corridors

MUMBAI, INDIA (Metro Rail News): On Monday, Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray flagged off trial runs for the city’s two new metro train lines, Metro 2A and 7, on the Charkop-Dahisar-Aarey route.

The metro is expected to be fully operational and available to the general public around four months after the trial run i.e. the initial phases of Metro-2A (Dahisar-Aarey) and Metro-7 (Dahanukarwadi-Aarey) starting in October 2021

When the metros open to the general public, a daily average of 9 lakh passengers would be able to travel. Commuters from Adheri to Dahisar are expected to benefit from this metro service since it will make travel easier and local trains will no longer be the main mode of public transportation. The construction of these metro lines is also expected to reduce congestion on western freeways and in western native.

Each metro practice might have six coaches, one of whom would be assigned to the females. Aside from the one ladies’ coach, four seats in each compartment may be dedicated for women.  The metro fare would range from Rs 10 for short distances and Rs 80 for long distances. The metro may be free of air pollution.

According to environmentalists, this is a good example of how two or more metro lines may cohabit in a single carshed. The green brigade is challenging the state of the Kanjurmarg composite carshed, which is intended for at least three metro rail lines – Metros 3, 4, and 6.

Metros 2A and 7 will temporarily share a carshed at Charkop for the time being. The Bombay High Court is considering a dispute about land title in Kanjurmarg. According to the Centre, the Kanjurmarg site belonged to its salt department. According to the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA), the 102 acres of land at the site are needed to build the carshed for metro lines 3, 4, and 6, as well as an interchange station for the projected line 14 with line 6.

“If there is a delay in acquiring land for the carshed in Kanjurmarg, it would have an impact on the metro train projects,” said environmental activist Zoru Bhathena.

The MMRDA is battling to acquire around 136 hectares of property for several metro train tracks interconnecting the city, including Dahisar (26 hectares), Mankhurd (30 hectares), Kanjurmarg (40 hectares), and Thane (40 hectares). The only easily accessible land piece is at Charkop (25 hectares), where the metro rail coaches of Metro 7 on Andheri (E)-Dahisar (E) and Metro 2A on Dahisar (W)-DN Nagar would first be stabled.

The Maharashtra government issued a notification in March to change the reservation for the metro car depot and casting yard in the Development Plan (DP) 2034. “The property should be granted in the wider public interest, as projects are being delayed,” says Stalin D, director of the NGO Vanshakti.

According to MMRDA sources, even in Charkop, there is a limit of 25-27 rakes. More property in Dahisar East, which has been earmarked for the Metro 7 line, will be required.

Chennai Metro Phase 2 Work starts with a tender for track works

CHENNAI (Metro Rail News): The majority of the city’s infrastructure projects are being hampered by the second Covid wave and a labour shortage, but the Chennai metro rail’s phase-2 project is moving forward, with Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) issuing a tender to lay tracks connecting the city’s core localities like T Nagar and Vadapalani with the IT hub in Porur and the Poonamallee bypass.

These areas are part of the 26.1km corridor that runs from Light House in the east to Poonamallee in the west, and pre-construction work on the 15.8km length is expected to begin in a month after two businesses were granted contracts.

Chennai Metro Phase 2

The Phase-2 network will consist of three routes totalling 118.9km and is expected to be completed by 2026. CMRL has begun seeking for a business that can supply, instal, test, and commission track on the subterranean and elevated parts of corridor-4 from Light House to Poonamallee bypass, as well as Poonamallee depot, after floating multiple tenders for the 118.9km phase. The 26.1-kilometer route consists of a 16-kilometer elevated corridor with 18 stations and a 10.1-kilometer subterranean portion with 12 stops. Officials previously stated that they may choose for ballasted tracks for the depot to save money and ballastless tracks for mainline train operations.

According to a Metrorail official, work on phase 2 has stalled owing to the Covid-induced statewide shutdown last year and this year’s state assembly elections. “But, during the lockdown, we had been working on getting the papers ready. The work has also been slowed down as a result of the model code of conduct that was in effect during the assembly elections. “We don’t want any further delays,” an official stated.

Three businesses were recently granted four building contracts by CMRL. It contained two contracts for the building of a section of corridor-4. Contracts will begin pre-construction work, such as soil investigations and other studies, within a month, according to officials.

Corridor-4 connects many of the city’s core neighbourhoods, including Marina Beach, Mylapore, Nandanam, T Nagar, Kodambakkam, Vadapalani, and Saligramam, are well-connected by public transportation, as are west Chennai neighbourhoods such as Chennai bypass crossing, Iyyappanthangal bus depot, Katuipakkam, Karayan Chavadi, and Poonamallee.

On corridor-4, Larsen & Toubro was awarded a contract to build a 7.9km elevated line with nine stations from Power House in Kodambakkam to Porur junction in 2.9 years, and Hindustan Construction-KEC International Consortium was awarded a contract to build a 7.9km elevated line with nine stations from Chennai bypass crossing to Poonamallee bypass in three years.

“The business must complete the contract signing procedures within 28 days and then begin work.” As a result, we may expect some work to begin within 28 days, although mobilising workers and larger machinery may take some time,” an official explained.
