About "Metro rail construction issues" topic:
Rapid growth in economy demands infrastructure that keeps pace with it.
With the increase in the population, the burden of urban banes like
poor infrastructure, traffic congestion and inadequate public transport
have started taking a toll on the citylife. So, Metro came into
existence and now Metro rail is being constructed in most of the
prominent cities in India.
And Delhi as we say is already having a
Metro train and is of world class standards, but in the recent past we
have seen many unfortunate Metro train accidents and then the
construction failures time and again, So, how to improve construction
with regard to metro train infrastructure? How safety can be ensured
in Metro rail construction.

Maximum amount of work should be undertaken at night and monitoring should be ensured by Supervisory staff at the site. In fact, it would be safer if the traffic is closed where Metro work is going on.

Yes, the people around should be taken into consideration and their participation in such a huge task is a must. A well co-ordinated team can do this with earnest. Everytime, when there is road blockades or so, proper notice should be given...

This is a subject matter of Engineers. They must look into "Safety First" - the thumb rule. Equally, other stake-holders, including the general public are also to participate. Our towns/ cities have thick population. We must observe safety rules...

I Support Mr. Ramesh Kandadai’s view. Also, the following can be considered : 1. The Government can encourage developments or develop satellite towns near larger Tire I and II cities. These cities must have connectivity via suburban trains...

Metro is not the ONLY solution but it is one of the better ones. There are many other options available now than they were say 50 years ago. 1. Use of busses 2. Metro 3. Suburban trains 4. Car pooling 5. Living close to work 6. Working out of...

I agree. The standard practices like making of proper Lifting Plans and Rgging Studies for each non standard Lifts and doing proper risk assessments for such lifts could have avoided the Crane's crash tragedy.

The major projects are undertaken considering the rate of return.The is with the view to recover capital investment as fast as possible.Manly infrastructures,which need periodical maintenance to enhance their life cycle and utility.Take the case of rails/roads,traffic is interrupted whenever maintenance is carried out. The decision makers should therefore consider the long term cost impacts in the construction,maintenance and transportation.The new technology is available fro Road and Railways construction.The initial investment may be little bit more but post construction maintenance expenditure and obstruction in the traffic will get reduced.This will help in saving on revenue and inc...

I am not sure whether this is really happened or not, But I liked it and want to share with all my friend here. Please read once ............ One day Maths teacher asked her students to list the names of the other students in the room on two sheets of paper, leaving a space between each name. Then she told them to think of the nicest thing they could say about each of their classmates and write it down. It took the remainder of the class period to finish their assignment, and as the students left the room, each one handed in the papers. That Saturday, the teacher wrote down the name of each student on a separate sheet of paper, and listed what everyone else had said about that individual. On Monday she gave each student his or her list. Before long, the entire class was smiling. 'Really?' she heard whispered. 'I never knew that I meant anything to anyone!' and, 'I didn't know others liked me so much,' were most of the comments. No one ever mentioned those papers in class again. She...
