INTRODUCTION

The concept of a metro for Delhi was first formalized in the Delhi Master Plan of 1960, and the legal framework for the metro was laid out in the Metro Railways (Construction of Works) Act of 1978. Actual work towards building the metro, however, only started in March 5, 1995, when the DMRC was established to provide a rail-based transport system that will alleviate Delhis ever growing transport congestion and vehicular pollution. The government of Japan has contributed more than half the cost of this project, through a soft loan disbursed by DMRCs major funding agency, the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC). Delhis metro rail system, to be constructed in four phases covering 245 kilometers, is scheduled to be finished in 2021. Today three functioning lines connect central Delhi to east, north, and southwest Delhi. DMRC is responsible not only for construction of the system but also for its operation and maintenance. It has 450 personnel in its construction department and 3,000 staff for system operation and maintenance. Physical construction work started on October 1, 1998 Aside from one major disagreement in 2000, where the Ministry of Railways forced the system to use broad gauge despite the DMRC's preference for standard gauge, construction proceeded smoothly. The first line opened on December 24, 2002 and the entire Phase I of the project was completed in December 2005, on budget and almost three years ahead of schedule, an achievement described as "nothing short of a miracle".

NEED FOR MRTS

As cities grow in size, the number of vehicular trips on road system goes up. This necessitates a pragmatic policy shift to discourage private modes and encourage public transport once the level of traffic along any travel corridor in one direction exceeds 20,000 persons per hour. Introduction of a rail based (MRTS) Mass Rapid Transit System is called for. Mass Rapid Transit Systems are capital intensive and have long gestation period. It has been observed that in developed countries, planning for mass transit system starts when city population size exceeds 1 million; the system is in position by the time the city population is 2 to 3 million and once the population exceeds 4 million or so, planned extensions to the Mass Rapid Transit Systems is vigorously taken up. In developing countries including India, because of paucity of funds planning and implementation of rail based Mass Rapid Transit Systems has been lagging far behind the requirements. The city of Delhi with a population of round 12 (16.2) million should have had an MRTS network of at least 100 (300) KM by this time, whereas actually it is still (65.10 kms) at the take-off stage. Delhi has all the ideal dress-up for an excellent Mass Rapid Transit System to be brought in. It has wide roads (roads cover 23% of the city area) where road possession for construction is not difficult (except in the old city area). Implementation will also not involve demolition of large scale private properties. Most of the land required is under Government control and hence can be easily acquired. The citizens are enlightened and would eagerly welcome introduction of people friendly MRTS though they may initially face some difficulties during the implementation phase. Added to this Delhi has an unassailable advantage in its excellent railway network comprising two rings and six spurs totaling about 120 KM within the urban area. Unfortunately, these Rail assets are not presently fully being utilized as its share of commuter traffic is only a mere 2%.

Delhi has experienced phenomenal growth in population in the last few decades. Its population has increased from 57 lakhs in 1981 to 120 (162) lakhs in 1998 (2006) and is poised to reach 132 (190) lakhs by the year 2001 (2011). For want of an efficient mass transport system, the number of motor vehicles has increased from 5.4 lakhs in 1981 to 30 (51) lakhs in 1998 (2007) and is (increasing at the rate of 6.21 per annum). The number of motor vehicles in Delhi is now more than that of Mumbai, Calcutta, Chennai put together. The result is extreme congestion on Delhi roads, ever slowing speeds, increase in road accidents fuel wastage and environmental pollution with motorized vehicles alone contributing to about two thirds of the atmospheric pollution. Today the traffic on roads of Delhi is a heterogeneous mix of cycles scooters buses cars and rickshaws jostling with each other. This has resulted in a chaotic situation so much so that due to road accidents, the average number of persons killed per day has increased to 5 and of those injured to 13. The position is expected to deteriorate further in the years to come. To rectify this situation the Government of India and the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi, in equal partnership have set up a company named Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Ltd. under the Companies Act,1956 which has (already commissioned a 65.10 kms route in Phase-I and is proceeding ahead with another 121 kms in Phase II).

MISSION To cover the whole of Delhi with a Metro Network by the year 2021. Delhi Metro to be of world class standards in regard to safety, reliability, punctuality, comfort and customer satisfaction. Metro to operate on sound commercial lines obviating the need for Government support.

CORPORATE CULTURE We should be totally dedicated and committed to the Corporate Mission

Operations management of DMRC

Page 9

 Personal integrity should never be in doubt, we should maintain full transparency in all our decisions and transactions The Organization must be lean but effective The Corporation must project an image of efficiency, transparency, courtesy and we mean business attitude. Our construction activities should not inconvenience or endanger public life nor should lead to ecological or environmental degradation All our structures should be aesthetically planned and well maintained Safety of Metro users is our paramount responsibility Our stations and trains should be spotlessly clean.

IMPORTANT FEATURES OF DMRC All metro stations and trains are monitored constantly by more than 1200 closed-circuit cameras, and specially trained Delhi Metro police are stationed at all stations and trains to deal with law and order issues in the system. The Delhi Metro is also one of the few metros in the world to have plain clothed metro marshals on trains. Intercoms are provided in each train car for emergency communication between the passengers and the driver.

Special Features in New Metro Trains The new trains in view of the increased rush on the Metro system in Delhi, will provide passengers with power connections inside the coaches so that they can use their laptops and charge their mobiles while they are travelling in the Metro. Every new Metro coach of Phase

Operations management of DMRC

Page 10

II will have power supply points for this purpose. The Metro coaches in Phase - II will also have reduced noise levels inside the trains as the DMRC is making major design changes to reduce the noise levels by use of special sound absorbing cushions in the walls of the Metro coaches and more buffing on the Metro doors which will be better sealed by reducing the door gaps to ensure that less sound from outside enters the trains thus enabling the passengers to travel in a better ambience. The noise level in the underground coaches has been reduced by 8 decibels(db) as in Phase-I the internal noise levels was around 92 db which will now be only 84 db in Phase-II. In addition, a new type of compressor called Scroll Compressor System will be used in the air conditioners of the Phase-II coaches which will be sealed and is more compact and this will reduce noise level in the coaches further. The Phase-II Metro coaches will also provide a much better level of passenger comfort as for the first time there will be Humidity control as Humidity Sensors will activate the newly planned heating system of the air conditioner which will eliminate humidity inside the coaches. The temperature will be maintained at 25 degree Celsius and relative humidity will be maintained at 60 % during the summer and monsoon months (in Phase - I trains, there was only temperature control). With the start of Phase-II the Delhi Metro will start travelling very far distances covering around 50 kms in some destinations such as Dwarka-Noida, Gugaon-Jahangirpuri, etc. To avoid confusion for the passengers who will travel on these lines, there will be new destination sign boards in LED on one window of the side wall of each coach so that passengers can view the terminal stations while standing on the platform as some Trains may be terminating at intermediate stations depending upon operational needs. This will be necessary as on the same line different trains may be terminating at different destinations.

Operations management of DMRC

Page 11

Phase - II trains will also have Closed Circuit Television Cameras (CCTVs) inside the coaches apart from cameras outside the coaches so that the driver can see the entry and exit of passengers from the train. The driver of the Metro trains will now be able to observe passenger behavior in every part of the train at all times. The trains in Phase - II are also being designed to travel upto a maximum design speed of 95 kmph as against 90 kmph in Phase - I. The braking system is also better as DMRC will use Wheel Mounted Disc Brakes which will be micro processor controlled. In addition, the train will have energy absorbent couplers which can absorb shock and reduce damage to the car body structure in collisions.

FACILITIES
1)

FEEDER BUSES They are environment friendly with CNG engine Bharat Stage III buses. Aesthetics and safety are important features. Feeder buses have Global Positioning System (GPS) equipment for real time

tracking, online alerts etc

Control centers are set up to monitor the movement of vehicles and will have

traffic managers, traffic inspectors and Control Room Operators.

A complaint book is there in every bus - Zero tolerance of complaints. A Public Address System is there in every bus. All buses are fan cooled. First Aid box and Fire extinguisher are there in every bus.

2) Has a carrying capacity as high as 60,000 80,000 phpdt (peak hour peak direction traffic). 3) Requires 1/5th energy per passenger km compared to road based system.
Operations management of DMRC Page 12

4) Causes no air pollution in the city and lesser noise levels 5) Occupies no road space if underground and only about 2 metre width of the road, along central median, if elevated.

ADVANTAGES OF METRO SYSTEM

Carries same amount of traffic as 6 lanes of bus traffic or 26 lanes of private

motor cars (each way)

Is more reliable, comfortable and safer than road based system Reduces journey time by anything between 50% and 75% depending on road

conditions

Organisation Structure:

The GoI and GNCTD constituted the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Ltd

(DMRC) as a company incorporated under the Companies Act for construction of the project and Mr. Sreedharan was appointed MD.

The DMRC had two departments project organization and operation &

maintenance in what is known as a lean organisation structure.

Selected group of professionals were trained at Hong Kongss Mass Rapid

Transit Railway Corporation (MTRC)

Complete freedom was provided to Mr. Sreedharan to recruit people of his

choice and build a team.

Each candidate was personally interviewed by him after a thorough review of

their track records with emphasis on integrity.

Most of the employees were in the age group of 18 to 30 years. The stress was on effective contract awarding and procurement processes in

order to prevent corruption.

The contract awarding process was made simple and transparent, the

procurement processes fair and just by removing all traces of subjectivity from tender evaluation.

The MD was given complete autonomy on all matters and was the last

authority on tenders.

Review and Supervision:

Operations management of DMRC Page 14

Every individual would be accountable for his/her role in the project. Each

employee had to prepare a Detailed Project Report (DPR) with particulars regarding the work assigned and work completed each day to be submitted to the respective supervisors. In case of any deviations, the employees had to give reasons for the same and steps for rectification.

Every Monday, the heads of departments had to meet to review progress, set

new targets or revise targets.

The stress was on adherence to schedules with reverse clocks to indicate the

number of days left before important deadlines.

Due to delay in setting up of the organisation the first phase of the project

commenced three years after the scheduled date, but the original deadline was not revised and the project duration was reduced from 10 years to 7 years to make up for the delayed start.

The Delhi Metro Railway (Operation & Maintenance) Act, 2002 was enacted,

superseding the local municipal laws of Delhi and the lower courts were barred from issuing stay orders.

A group of lawyers was engaged to make sure that the courts did not grant

such stay orders.

Cost Control measures:

Operations management of DMRC

Page 15

The total expenditure was split into 3 heads manpower, energy and

materials including maintenance, each accounting for onethird of the total project cost.

The DMRC employed only 45 persons per kilometre of track to adhere to

international norms. This was only a third of the number of persons employed in the Kolkata Metro Rail project which was the only other such project in India before Delhi.

To cut energy costs, a special agreement was entered into with the Delhi

Transco Ltd to source power at low rates.

Project duration was controlled by use of special construction technologies

like trenchless digging, use of ballastless tracks,etc.

Primavera Project Planner:

A special software Primavera Project Planner, was used for project planning

and monitoring. The resource planning module of the project alerted users in case of excess or shortage of resources while the cost planning module provided a complete cost breakup of the project.

The software was also used to keep track of project activities, quantum of work

completed at different levels, the time lost or gained etc.

Information regarding all critical and upcoming activities was also available

to facilitate tracking and rescheduling of activities where necessary.

All this was necessary as the loss incurred if one day of work is lost is about 5

million rupees.
Operations management of DMRC Page 16

Quality Assurance:

A special quality assurance team independent of the field executives was

appointed to ensure quality in construction.

All personnel working at the construction site were required to wear helmets

and other appropriate safety gear.

Consultancy and contracts was undertaken by a global bidding program which

required at least one Indian partner, to ensure technology absorption by Indian firms and for localisation and reengineering of technology.

The technology used was the best and the latest available. Multinational

engineering corporations from across the globe worked on the project.

A five member consortium led by the Pacific Consultants International (PCI)

was constitute to provide overall consultancy for the project.

Work on utility diversion was undertaken much before the commencement

of work on a particular section. The concerned consortium surveyed the area for utilities (water pipes, sewer, water pipes, etc) to submit a written report to DMRC which completed the work within the prescribed period.

Operations management of DMRC

Page 17

Managing the stakeholders Government, contractors, funding agencies and general public:

Autonomy of the DMRC was ensured in the recruitment process, promotions,

contract awarding and land acquisition. It took a stand that any change in any decision would be made only if it was required from a technical or professional angle and not simply because somebody wants it.

Cordial relationship was maintained with the contractors by making

payment on time. The contractors were grateful for not having to give bribes to secure the contracts which ensured their full cooperation and completion of the project ahead of schedule in certain sections because of their suggestions.

The officials of JBIC which provided a major part of the funding for the project

were involved in all major events concerned with the project to maintain cordial relations with them.

All utilities were diverted well in advance so as to ensure minimum

inconvenience to the general public. Community interaction programmes were organised to inform and seek solutions from the public.

Alternate traffic arrangements were made for the roads affected by the

construction with the assistance of the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi. This was done by building new roads or by widening of existing roads.

The ISO 14001 certification, which deals with standards for minimising the

adverse effects of the operational processes on the environment, was obtained. New York Metro is the only other metro to have obtained this certification.

It also obtained the OHSAS 18001 certification for its environment,

occupational health and safety management system.
