IG Drones to survey Uttarakhand Metro's PRT Corridor

04 Jan 2024 CW Team

In a pioneering move, the Inspector General (IG) Drones have been enlisted for the comprehensive survey of Uttarakhand Metro's Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) corridor. This strategic utilisation of drone technology underscores a forward-thinking approach to urban transportation planning and showcases a commitment to leveraging cutting-edge solutions for infrastructure development.

The deployment of drones for surveying purposes enhances the efficiency and precision of data collection for the upcoming PRT corridor in Uttarakhand. The aerial perspective offered by drones facilitates a detailed assessment of the terrain, potential challenges, and optimal routes for the proposed metro corridor.

This initiative aligns with the broader vision of modernising urban transportation in Uttarakhand and ensuring that infrastructure projects are executed with accuracy and foresight. The use of drone technology not only expedites the surveying process but also contributes to the generation of valuable data that can inform the planning and construction phases of the PRT corridor.

As Uttarakhand Metro advances in incorporating innovative solutions for its transportation projects, the deployment of IG Drones for surveying the PRT corridor sets a precedent for integrating technology into urban infrastructure development. This approach is poised to enhance the overall effectiveness and sustainability of the forthcoming metro system in Uttarakhand, establishing it as a model for futuristic urban transportation initiatives.
