Of these about 40% were projected to be performed by rail.Feasibility Study and DPR for Delhi.1. For intercity travel to Delhi. 20% by rail and 30% by all other modes. transport demand was expected to grow to 35 lakh trips daily by 2005 and 90 lakhs trips by 2025. The consumer preference survey undertaken revealed a substantial shift towards a mass transport system both in inter and intra city traffic if a well-integrated rail cum road based system (such as buses) is provided. In addition 20 lakh intercity trips were also being performed daily of which 50% were by buses. The study forecasted that by 2005 the daily intra city vehicular trips would increase to 157 lakhs and by 2025 to 249 lakhs. Considering the demand and capacity of various sections. was prepared.

With this background Northern Railways commissioned a study in 1998 to identify railway projects for commuter travel in NCR and Delhi. 1% by rail and remaining 37% by all other modes.

Figure 3.Feasibility Study and DPR for Delhi. The broad Study Methodology is presented at Figure 3.1 Study Methodology 28 . To establish candidate traffic consultant will collect information from three different sources: 1. The brief review of the previous reports and the development plans has been presented in Section 2 of this report. Review of Earlier Studies & Secondary Data Collection Preliminary field visits for reconnaissance of the transport system / network along the corridor have been conducted. Traffic Field Surveys & Transport Demand Forecast The aim of this module is to estimate the demand for the corridor for the horizon years. Auto rickshaws and Two Wheelers (Through road side interviews at 13 locations on key roads connecting these locations) 29 .5. The Consultant will also identify & analyse project specific relevant data which can be collected through the secondary surveys. This will constitute the candidate traffic out of which a part of the traffic is expected to shift on the new system. People using buses (to be conducted at bus terminals of major towns on corridor) 3. Consultant also attended a meeting of the task force held on 23rd April 2010 to assess the views and suggestions on the study and will incorporate them in the stage reports. The major objective for this exercise would be to get an idea about the previous methodologies adopted for forecasts and their limitations.4. The Consultant will also review other secondary data like the development plans of cities falling on the alignment of the proposed corridor. People using Cars Taxis. As a part of scope of work. 3. The first step for establishing the demand on new system is to estimate the quantum of total traffic in the corridor in the base year across all modes and across all purposes.Gurgaon-Rewari-Alwar RRTS Corridor Inception Report 3.Feasibility Study and DPR for Delhi. cost estimates and ridership. the Consultant will review earlier similar studies including their system specification. Reconnaissance. People using the Railways (ticketing information) 2. Vans. travel speed etc. A similar exercise will be carried out for the road traffic. waiting time. ii) 5 point likert scale: The questionnaire will be so designed that the response can be regressed with the variables of the scenarios such as fare. The probability (P) of shift is then computed through the below logit form P= 1/(e-R) Where R is the response function derived as per following. This survey will use a questionnaire which will have 2 parts: i) Socio-economic profile of the respondent. Consultant will collect information on railway ridership on the corridor through ticketing sale data and establish elasticities between growth of traffic and economic parameters such as GDP/Industrial Growth/Population etc. On the basis of the development plan for the cities which have been reviewed earlier. comfort.Feasibility Study and DPR for Delhi. It is assumed that one category of respondent would have similar willingness to shift which will be different from the respondents in other categories. The responses on this pro forma will allow the calibration of a logit function. Where m1 and m2 are the derived coefficients and v1 and v2 are variable scenarios such as fare. The trip matrices of probable users derived so will then be summed up to obtain the total demand for the RRTS. the consultant will establish economic trends in the corridor and forecast the economic parameters along the influence zone of the 30 . It will help to profile the respondent into categories that can be grouped. R= m1xv1+m2xv2…….Gurgaon-Rewari-Alwar RRTS Corridor Inception Report The quantum of traffic willing to shift to RRTS will be established through an interview survey. to develop response functions of the form. segmental loadings as well as station loadings that can be used for calibrating the model for the base year. This will provide the demand in terms of total trips. frequency etc. This function will be derived for various segments of users and applied to each of the segmental candidate OD Matrices. The outputs will be presented in AutoCAD drawing format. 31 . On the basis of elasticities derived above consultant will establish growth rates for various segments of users and using these growth rates the candidate OD matrices will be forecast for the design years.Gurgaon-Rewari-Alwar RRTS Corridor Inception Report RRTS. The survey will cover built up line to built-up line and include all physical elements as well as Spot / Ground levels. Selection of Alignment After the completion of the traffic study. covering an area of 50 m on either side of the extreme tracks by establishing the control points and using the Auto Levels and Total Station for further detailing. The operational width of the route alignment will be worked out depending upon dimensions of rolling stock of the suggested RRTS and other clearances required and its feasibility will be ascertained at site with a view to accommodating the same.7. Detailed Field Investigations Topographic Survey Topographic Survey will be conducted along the existing railway alignment from Delhi to Alwar. various options for alignment will be explored and the most optimal alignment will be finalized after discussion with the Client. The alignment will be selected with the objective to minimize the private land acquisition and maximize the ridership.Feasibility Study and DPR for Delhi. The route alignment will be plotted on the available survey maps of the corridors using alignment design parameters for the selected system such as curvature requirements. gradient. vehicle characteristics and reversal requirement. 3. Additional Topographic survey will be conducted for the requirement of the new alignment on its approval by the client. Yard remodelling and connections to existing alignment will be spelt out.6. The traffic forecasts on the proposed RRTS Corridors will include section-wise passenger loads. (Application of growth rates on trip matrix). transfers at interchange locations and intensity of utilisation for the horizon years 2021 and 2031. 3. station locations. The areas/locations requiring widening to accommodate the proposed system and land requirement will also be identified. Forecast travel demand will then be estimated by applying the probability function as derived above.

It is therefore proposed that after the approval of 3rd Stage Report containing Travel Demand Forecast. a “Corridor Alignment Report” be submitted by the consultant as the 4th Stage Report. after the approval of new alignment for the corridor. The topographic survey is to be carried out for the area 50 metres on either side of the existing extreme tracks and the proposed alignment.1. The Topographical Study Report and Geotechnical Investigation Report will be submitted along with the Feasibility Report as 5th Stage Report. cannot be taken up unless the new alignment is approved. While topographic survey of the existing railway alignment can be started right away. Changes suggested in the deliverables: As per the schedule of deliverables provided in the contract for consultancy services.Feasibility Study and DPR for Delhi. the approval of new alignment is a condition precedent for preparation and submission of the Topographical Study Report and Geotechnical Investigation Report. the same cannot be taken up for the proposed RRTS alignment unless it is approved by NCR Planning Board. 38 . the 4th Stage Report i. The work Program has been drawn incorporating the suggested change. 4. Consequently. Thus the new alignment of the RRTS corridor can be approved expeditiously which will facilitate conduct of Topographical survey and the Geotechnical Investigations of the approved alignment area.
