> Mumbai's LAtest....

no re...they have normal (always open ) doors like the old ones... the metros will have automatic doors..i'm just waiting for the metro service to start...then we'll see how long the doors survive the 'endurance test'..

As for the elevated tracks above the existing ones, tht is easier said than done.. It is a HUGE and complicated project to undertake..it'll mean closing parts of already overloaded routes for the cranes, workers, bridge girders, cement n concrete stock on a daily basis for years for such a long route..(close to 50 kms on the western route and longer on the central route)...tht'll mean more delayed trains, more passengers per train..more chaos.. Obviously if such an ambitious roject were possible, it will solve a lot of problems..but the problem is the construction period for such a long route.... Not to forget the maintenance of elevated routes and bridges itself run into millions every year..

The city that needs it most is bangalore... Traffic here is really pathetic..

yeah... Bangalore's infrastructure is just collapsing !!

This just proves how important the suburban train service/metro is to a big city..!! All the big cities without this service have a chaotic traffic condition.. same is the problem with Pune.. Even though it does have its own local train service, it hardly covers all the important locations in the city, unlike mumbai...thts the reason why traffic condition in pune is so pathetic as well.. As for mumbai, the reason for traffic voes here evn after such an efficient local train service is not the trains, but the sheer number of ppl travelling in the trains.. No train service in the world can handle the travelling population like tht.. The numbers simply overwhelm every means of transport in the city..
