Compared on what basis, construction, or per coach or propulsion system, or what?
> Does not require land but follows roads. Stations are maximum 50 m > long and access is from the footpath. >>> If one rake is 18.5 m long, plus coupling length, why have more than double length station, which will allow unnecessary loafing by non passengers, and sight seeing types, as happened at New Delhi Metro. Also, how wide are the platforms, how much foot print on the footpath / road will these stations occupy ? The structural system, safety to passengers boarding, alighting ? >The design is based on rate of flow of passengers 300 persons per 15 seconds- minimum holding space is provided- entry is only for bonafide commuter having smart card. The length of platform is only 38m –enough to handle traffic for next century. Compare this length with existing railway platforms!The floor levels and the coach foor match. The presentations in the Files may be seen. > Fare box collection alone can sustain the system and can give 15% > FIRR at ridership of 2 lacs per day per 10 km route at
