General news :

इफ्को चौक-द्वारका सेक्टर-21 के बीच प्रस्तावित दिल्ली-हरियाणा बार्डर स्टेशन को भारतीय रेल के मॉडल स्टेशन ब्रिजवासन से जोड़ा जाएगा। डीएमआरसी ने अपनी नई डीपीआर में इसका जिक्र किया है।

भारतीय रेल ब्रिजवासन स्टेशन से कुछ दूरी पर अपने रेल बजट में मॉडल स्टेशन बनाने की बात कह चुका है। इसे टर्मिनल स्टेशन की तरह तैयार किया जाना है। हालांकि इस स्टेशन पर अभी काम शुरू नहीं हो सका है लेकिन डीएमआरसी की नई डीपीआर के मुताबिक इस नए ब्रिजवासन मॉडल स्टेशन से मेट्रो लाइन को कनेक्ट करने की प्लानिंग है। इससे यात्रियों को सुविधा होगी और वे नए ब्रिजवासन स्टेशन तक मेट्रो से आसानी से पहुंच सकेंगे।

अभी तक दिल्ली-रेवाड़ी स्टेशन डीएमआरसी से डायरेक्ट कनेक्ट नहीं है। ऐसे में रेल यात्रियों को परेशानी होती है। इस रूट पर डेढ़ लाख से अधिक डेली पैसेंजरों आते हैं। ऐसे में यह डिमांड लंबे समय से उठ रही है कि इस स्टेशन को भी मेट्रो से कनेक्ट किया जाए। हालांकि कीर्ति नगर रेलवे स्टेशन के पास ही मेट्रो स्टेशन है लेकिन इस रूट की पैसेंजर ट्रेनें भी इस स्टेशन पर नहीं रुकतीं। ऐसे में अगर डीएमआरसी अपने इस मेट्रो कॉरिडोर को रेलवे स्टेशन से जोड़ती है तो इसका लाभ रेल यात्रियों को भी मिलेगा। रेल यात्रियों को द्वारका के विभिन्न सेक्टरों तक मेट्रो से पहुंचने में काफी आसानी होगी। इसके अलावा वह कम समय में नई दिल्ली रेलवे स्टेशन या मेट्रो के जरिए अन्य जगह भी पहुंच सकेंगे।
डीएमआरसी प्रवक्ता का कहना है कि नई डीपीआर हरियाणा को सौंपी जा चुकी है। दिल्ली-हरियाणा बार्डर स्टेशन वहां की आबादी को देखते हुए ही शामिल किया गया है। मेट्रो मंे हमेशा ही यात्रियों की सुविधाओं का ख्याल रखा है। साथ ही मेट्रो, रेलवे और बस अड्डों को अपने नेटवर्क से जोड़ने का प्रयास कर रही है।

Wait and watch, if the current negotiations work out we may even have a HSR mania

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I'm concerned about this.

Aeroplanes are a good and established alternative to HSR's.

A South - East Bombay (Read Wadala) Project, Pretty Pic. Dept.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

A Bigger Render -

(c) Aedas, a reputable arch. design house - so this project is on.

Wadala is in make over mode, used to be truck depot and remains oil tank storage area, on the south-east coast of Bombay city itself, go figure.

Indian cities are also good for over-nighters say the major Delhi-Bombay, Delhi-Calcutta artery.
Delhi-Madras, Bangalore, Kochi or Bombay- Calcutta, Bombay- Madras, Cal-Madras is better by plane.

Solution: Make small-to-medium commuter planes, with cheaper 'ground effect' sea-plane versions re: vast coastal market, think Bombay-Goa, Calcutta-Madras etc. routes! Pssst entrepreneurs, here's your mega $ Billions !

Problem: Japan, Germany, France & China are HSR champion's and are so pushy about HSR's that they will sign up India no problem. Said countries have vast public funds to foist on India. An India where the politicos think nothing of big ticket infra projects with future debt burdens passed on to the next generations of Indian public. Any engineer or public minded lay man can see that while public transport infra projects like Metro, BRT, Airport's have merit; they are hugely over-priced and over engineered re: Indian conditions.

Local solutions would have been 10-100 times cheaper and would have given a shot in the arm to the nascent R&D community of India. However, the mega contract 'padding' common with foreign money driven public projects would be lacking ... no loot for the corrupt cabal of politicos, builders and contractors .

Well agreed flight options are available, but HSR will be cheaper than air travel, not by much, ofcourse, but still it will make quite a difference, plus it's time to welcome some new trains in the country

In 10 years, all of south Indian cities would be very different. Things are changing pretty fast. As and when Interest rates are cut down to previous levels, there would be surge in development.

Not only South Indian, but Indians cities in general, Delhi is a leading example. You should really go there, I wasn't expecting much but I would say it surprised me, so we can conclude, the everlasting problem of "poor infrastructure of poor India" is being resolved now, in 2015, many of the towers in Mumbai will be completed and I would really be waiting for them... similar things are happening in Bengaluru and Delhi-NCR, Gurgaon area... Now we are waiting for UP and Bihari bhaiyaas
