WHY METROLITE?
• Requirement of cost effective MRTS for tier 2/3 cities – with
PHPDT upto 15,000
• Bus transit system cater upto 5,000 PHPDT which is
insufficient
• Heavy metro is economical for PHPDT greater than 15,000.
• Suitable rail based light metro system operating
successfully worldwide.
• MoHUA has issued standard specifications for rail based
light metro system named Metrolite for use in tier 2/3
Indian cities.
