Energy Efficiency
RRTS trains will have push buttons for selective opening of doors, which will be need based. This will eliminate the opening of all doors at every station, thus leading to energy saving. RRTS trainsets will also have state-of-the-art Regenerative Braking System which converts the train’s kinetic energy into electrical energy.
Platform Screen Doors
Platform Screen Doors (PSDs) will be used to isolate the platforms from the track. PSDs will open only when the train stops at the correct position. The use of PSDs will help to prevent accidents, objects falling on track, and trespassing. PSDs will be synchronously controlled throughout the length of the platform. PSDs which are […]
Automatic Fare Collection
NCRTC is adopting Automatic Fare Collection (AFC) system for Delhi- Ghaziabad- Meerut RRTS corridor. AFC will offer QR Code based ticketing (Digital QR & Paper QR). Each Ticket Vending Machine (TVM) shall be equipped with a credit/debit/pre-paid card reader compliant with EMV (Europay, MasterCard, Visa), RuPay standard for non-cash payment of transactions. This will ensure […]
Integrated Real-Time Enterprise Asset Management System
The RRTS project is asset intensive and hence, management and maintenance of its assets through well-defined and coordinated processes plays a key role in the success of the project. NCRTC is implementing an Integrated Real-Time Enterprise Asset Management System (iDREAMS) which would ingest real-time data from different sources and other subsystems such as BIM, GIS, […]
ETCS L2 Signalling
RRTS will have European Train Control System (ETCS) Level 2 which includes Automatic Train Protection (ATP), Automatic Train Operation (ATO), and Automatic Train Supervision (ATS) sub-systems using radio communication between track side and train. ETCS Level 2 signaling will be used for the first time in India, which involves continuous supervision of train movement with […]
Track Structure
The pre-cast ballastless tracks for RRTS, which support design speed of 180 kmph, are being indigenously manufactured in India. RRTS tracks will support high-performance and will require low maintenance thus reducing the life-cycle cost.
