Operational Impact
The use of OpenRail Designer in the Phase IV expansion project has resulted in several operational benefits for the DMRC. The software's 3D capabilities allowed the team to easily visualize the final proposal and share it with all participants, improving collaboration and decision-making. The ability to integrate Google Maps into the design process provided a more comprehensive visualization, increasing efficiency and accuracy in the design process. The team was able to easily modify the alignment to circumvent congested areas and maintain safe distances from historical monuments, ensuring the preservation of the city's cultural heritage. The project continues DMRC’s continual efforts to help the local population travel easier and safer, while also reducing their environmental impact. | |
Quantitative Benefit
The project team completed the alignment design of the railway line in under three months. | |
Using OpenRail Designer, the team was able to reduce resource hours and project costs. | |
The Delhi Metro rail system has helped to reduce pollution levels in the city of New Delhi by 630,000 metric tons every year. | |
