    The document discusses signaling requirements for the Delhi Metro system. It notes that signaling was designed to accommodate smaller headways between trains to enable safe and efficient operation. The system uses ATP/ATS on rail corridors and full CATC (ATP + ATS + ATO) on metro corridors to regulate speed, braking, and flow of information to reduce strain on drivers. It also lists accessibility features of METRORail including level platforms, audible and digital announcements, frequent service, and automatic door opening to aid boarding for all passengers.

    Signalling

    The signaling requirements for Delhi Metro have been worked out keeping in mind the
    smaller headway of train operation and consequent safety requirement for effective,
    smooth and safe operation. The strain on driver is reduced by deploying the built in safety feature of speed
    regulation, braking and fast flow of information.

    Delhi Metro shall use ATP/ATS system of CATC for rail corridor whereas on the Metro corridor full CATC (i.e.
    ATP + ATS + ATO) shall be used.

    Accessible METRORail features include:

    • Level platforms at all rail stations for easy boarding


    • Audible and digital station announcements inside the train and also at the station
    • Frequent service
    • Wheelchairs tie-downs are not needed on the trains because of the smooth ride
    • METRORail stops at all stations and the doors open automatically
