Press Release PRESS RELEASE Bombardier celebrates the delivery of the 800th MOVIA metro car to Delhi Metro • Since the first train was introduced on Delhi Metro’s network in 2009, Bombardier’s metro fleet has travelled around 150 million kilometres and moved more than four billion passengers safely and comfortably • Delhi Metro operates one of the largest MOVIA metro fleets in the world with 816 metro cars ordered since 2007 Berlin, October 27, 2020 – Global mobility technology leader Bombardier Transportation recently celebrated the delivery of the 800th BOMBARDIER MOVIA metro car to India’s Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Ltd (DMRC). Together in partnership, Delhi Metro and Bombardier have been supporting Delhi’s National Capital Region’s ambitious expansion plans since 2007 and the new metros have delivered a huge capacity boost to Delhi’s metro network. The 800th metro car left Bombardier’s state-of- the-art railway vehicle manufacturing site at Savli near Vadodara, India and it will now undergo rigorous testing and commissioning processes before starting passenger service. “Delhi Metro is pleased to have received the 800th indigenously manufactured metro car from Bombardier for its network. Bombardier’s metro cars, operating across Line 2, 3 and 4, add to DMRC’s extensive metro network that has benefited passengers and society in terms of comfort and environmental sustainability. Delhi Metro’s vast network is a classic example of self-reliant India with significantly high local content and manufacturing, delivering Hon’ble Prime Minister’s Make in India programme,” said S. S. Joshi, Director for Rolling Stock and Signalling, DMRC. “We appreciate the tremendous effort from our Indian team to deliver 800 metro cars to Delhi Metro. We greatly value the trust and support received from Delhi Metro in this 13-year journey. This achievement of delivering the 800th metro car highlights the large scale and magnitude of Delhi Metro’s operations and we are extremely proud to be Delhi Metro’s long-term partner,” said Rajeev Joisar, Managing Director for India at Bombardier Transportation. He added, “These 100 per cent locally manufactured energy-efficient trains have been moving 1.5 million people in Delhi safely every day and the remaining 16 metro cars from the latest order (RS16) will be delivered to Delhi Metro by the end of this year.” The high degree of localization at both the Savli and Maneja sites is in line with Delhi Metro’s indigenous procurement plan that encourages local manufacturing and the Indian government’s ‘Make in India’ program by delivering rail vehicles, products and solutions that are developed for both Indian and foreign markets. Bombardier is one of Delhi Metro’s largest suppliers of rolling stock and with over 140 km of lines operating with the globally proven BOMBARDIER CITYFLO mass transit signalling solution, installed on Delhi Metro’s lines 5, 6, 7 and 9, makes Bombardier the largest signalling supplier for Delhi Metro. The new modern, high-capacity MOVIA metro vehicles for Delhi Metro integrate some of the world's most advanced mobility technologies such as the BOMBARDIER MITRAC propulsion and control system and the BOMBARDIER FLEXX Metro 3000 bogies, an extremely robust and reliable design specifically adapted to suit Delhi’s infrastructure. The new vehicles accommodate up to 740 more passengers and once configured into eight-car trainsets, carry as many as 2,960 passengers per train on three of Delhi’s busiest metro lines. About Bombardier Transportation in India With around 1,500 employees, Bombardier Transportation in India operates a rail vehicle manufacturing site and bogie assembly hall at Savli, near Vadodara, Gujarat.

  • Applying Life Cycle Assessment to Analyze the Environmental Sustainability of Public Transit Modes for the City of Toronto
    Applying life cycle assessment to analyze the environmental sustainability of public transit modes for the City of Toronto by Ashton Ruby Taylor A thesis submitted to the Department of Geography & Planning in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada September, 2016 Copyright © Ashton Ruby Taylor, 2016 Abstract One challenge related to transit planning is selecting the appropriate mode: bus, light rail transit (LRT), regional express rail (RER), or subway. This project uses data from life cycle assessment to develop a tool to measure energy requirements for different modes of transit, on a per passenger-kilometer basis. For each of the four transit modes listed, a range of energy requirements associated with different vehicle models and manufacturers was developed. The tool demonstrated that there are distinct ranges where specific transit modes are the best choice. Diesel buses are the clear best choice from 7-51 passengers, LRTs make the most sense from 201-427 passengers, and subways are the best choice above 918 passengers. There are a number of other passenger loading ranges where more than one transit mode makes sense; in particular, LRT and RER represent very energy-efficient options for ridership ranging from 200 to 900 passengers. The tool developed in the thesis was used to analyze the Bloor-Danforth subway line in Toronto using estimated ridership for weekday morning peak hours. It was found that ridership across the line is for the most part actually insufficient to justify subways over LRTs or RER. This suggests that extensions to the existing Bloor-Danforth line should consider LRT options, which could service the passenger loads at the ends of the line with far greater energy efficiency.

    METRO RAIL IN INDIA a Success Story in Pictures Three Tire Crossing of Delhi Metro Pink Line and Airport Express at Sadar Patel Marg By Dr. F.A. Wingler, Germany, July 2020 METRO RAIL IN INDIA A SUCCESS STORY IN PICTURES By Dr. F.A. Wingler, Germany, July 2020 PREFACE: Worldwide India is raking second behind China in regard of the pace in installing and expanding in its cities Metro Rail. The operational total length as April 2020 has reached 692.65 km. Further 968 km are at present under construction or extension in varies cities. See Tab. 1, 2 and 3. The fast paced implementation of METRO RAIL in several mega cities has become a main constituent within the Governmental Transport and Traffic Policy for urban development. METRO RAIL has become in several cities the main backbone or “lifeline” for URBAN MOBILITY IN INDIA as a Service boosting socio-economic development. The rapid success with Metro Rail is owed also to the fact, that India has imported the technology from abroad. METRO RAIL IN INDIA, meeting the demand for Urban Mobility, is a success story for its fast paced legislation, planning, financing, construction and operation; and in the last 18 years has significantly improved URBAN MOBILITY and changed the public transport in several Indian cities; see also survey in http://sundarmukherjee.blogspot.com and Metro Newsletter 47 in Portfolio 3 in http://www.drwingler.com. The Kolkata Metro was for 18 years the only Underground Metro Rail in India, opening for commercial services from 1984. It celebrates now its 35th anniversary.

  • Enhancing Infrastructure
    ENHANCING INFRASTRUCTURE New York City’s historical development and pre-eminence, as well as its current growth and success are predicated in part on its transportation offerings. Today, ensuring that we can use the infrastructure we have, and that our current systems are truly accessible to all New Yorkers is a key goal. Such efforts are vital not only for the 8.3 million New Yorkers but also to encourage and promote economic growth stemming from the 47 million visitors to New York each year. Indeed, enhancing our public transit system so that travel throughout the city is easy and “seamless ”is one of the city’s most important transportation goals. As New York embarks upon a massive re-branding campaign to increase New York’s visibility as a tourist destination, increasing access to the city’s transportation systems and enhancing the connectivity of the system has never been more important. This report highlights five technologies and systems that have increased access and improved subway connections in other cities around the world and which could be implemented in New York. • Designated ROWs » Case Study 15: Physically Separated ROWs » Case Study 16: Non-Physically Separated ROWs • Internal Gangway Subway Cars » Case Study 17: Articulated Subway Cars • Bicycle Transit Centers » Case Study 18: BikeStation and the McDonalds Cycle Center • Wheelchair Access for the Subways » Case Study 19: Wheelchair Escalators and Emergency Lifts » Case Study 20: Universal Access Turnstiles • Taxi Vouchers and Accessible Taxis » Case Study 21: Chicago’s Taxi Access Program Cars double-parked in the bicycle lane on Lafayette Street in 2007.
