IIM Kozhikode
Submitted to Prof. G. Thangamani
 Project Scope
• The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Ltd. (DMRC) was commissioned by Pune (PMC) and Pune
Chinchwad (PCMC) Municipal Corporations as a consultant for about 30 Kms. of Metro network
in the Pune Metropolitan area. Description Underground (km) Elevated (km) Total (km)
Corridor-1: PCMC- Swargate 5.019 11.570 16.589
Corridor-1: Vanaz Ramvadi 0 14.665 14.665
Total 31.254

• The project consisted of studying the topography, demographic, travel pattern, traffic and
commuter count, etc. related to the city of Pune.
• Metro feasibility in various aspects like finance, commuter count, cost recovery, physical
implementation, etc. was analysed
 High-Level Budgets
• The Pune Metro consisting of two corridors has been
proposed to be constructed with an estimated cost of Rs
9221.00 Crore with Central Taxes and land cost
excluding State Taxes. The corridor-wise length
estimated cost at November-2015 price level without
central taxes and with central taxes is shown in the
adjacent table:
• The estimated cost at Nov-2015 price level includes Rs.
583 Crore and Rs.349 Crore as land cost including R&R
cost respectively for Corridor I and II. The estimated
cost at Nov-2015 price level also includes an amount of
Rs. 40.00 Crore as one-time charges of security personal
towards cost of weapons, barricades, and hand held and
door detector machine etc. However, the recurring cost
of Rs. 1.11 Crore per station per annum at Nov-2015
price level towards operation cost of CISF has been
taken in to account in FIRR calculation.
 High Level Budgets
• Although the construction is expected to
get over by March 2020 and March Cost at Nov 2015 Price Level Completion Cost
2021, the cash flow spill over up to Financial Year Corridor- Corridor- Corridor- Corridor-

 Disaster Management
Major Objectives of the Disaster Management Plan:
The Plan has segregated the types of disaster as given below:
1. Prompt evacuation of the passengers
TYPE OF DISASTER EXAMPLES
2. Protect Rail Metro Property
Terrorist Attack
Hostage
Manmade
Solutions proposed: Stampede
Train collision
The Plan follows the procedures set up by the National Fire in Metro station
Disaster Management Authority, State Disaster Natural Earthquakes
Management Authority and district level authorities Floods
Some of the preventive measures implemented are:
• Fire Detection and Suppression System Risk mitigation policies in terms of project delay and chances of
• Tunnel Ventilation System shutting down the project were not mentioned in the DPR. We will
be analysing the same in the coming slides
• Fire Drills
 Major issues in Project implementation
Delay:
Alignment Issues:
Initial DPR was submitted by the DMRC who was appointed by • Most roads were too narrow to fit the metro columns
the PMC. The initial project was approved in great haste in 2010 • After metro, the roads couldn’t bear the increased traffic
by PMC • Underground metro was not considered a feasible option
However, no independent appraisal was conducted for the report.
Environment Interest Litigation:
Multiple issues caused the delay: • EIL was filed in 2016 against the realignment of line 2 from JM
• Issues in getting land – e.g Agriculture College unwilling to Road to Mutha River
give land • Concerns over free flow of water of the river were raised
• Metro Depot land was already assigned to another Govt.
Project (Shivsrishti)
• The project lost 5 years in delay due to unnecessary discussions
• Constant realignment delayed the project more and more
• Debates over FSI
 Project
Execution
• There are multiple phases in
which the execution of the metro
project is planned.
• There are subparts based on the
routes that will be worked up on
in each sub-category of the project
• The routes have been named
recently as-
• Purple Line (Happiness)
• Aqua Line (As is passes through
Mula Mutha river)
 Conclusion
• The existing urban transport system of Pune City which is road-based has already come under stress leading to longer travel
time, increased air pollution and rise in number of road accidents.
• Studies have brought out that a Medium Metro with carrying capacity of about 25,000 phpdt will be adequate to meet not only
the traffic needs for the present but for the future 30 to 40 years also.
• A Medium Metro System consisting of two Corridors namely (i) PCMC – Swargate Corridor (16.59 km) and Vanaz - Ramvadi
Corridor (14.67km) at an estimated completion cost of Rs. 10700.00 crores (Central taxes & duties) to be made operational has
accordingly been recommended
• A SPV would be set up to get the project implemented and initially the SPV may lack in expertise, it will be necessary to
engage Interim Consultants for the first one year who will do this job on behalf of the SPV in preparation of land plans,
transferring the alignment from drawing to the ground, fixing the contracts for some of the selected elevated packages and
depots. Interim consultant will also help in finalization of General Consultants.
