RDSO may conduct trial run for Jaipur metro

Research Designs and Standards Organisation (RDSO), a research body of the ministry of railways, is expected to conduct trial runs of the Jaipur Metro project in April or May this year.

The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), which is implementing the project, has asked the RDSO to conduct the trial run so that the project can be commissioned soon.

Recently, the Commissioner of Metro Rail Safety (CMRS) for the project was nominated and DMRC plans to submit details to the authority soon. The Commissioner of Western Railway has been nominated to give safety clearance to the project.

DMRC has even started applying to get mandatory safety certificates that will be issued after inspection by various agencies in order to ensure that the deadline for the final run of the Metro route (Mansarovar to Chandpole) is met.

DMRC submitted the required documents to seek approval from the RDSO. Correspondenca has also been done to settle down the queries of the RDSO and approval is expected soon.

The certification involves various agencies and will take at least two months time to check all the safety and operational parameters.

But reports suggest that the civil construction work of 9.25 km long Jaipur Metro corridor (Mansarovar to Chandpole) is already delayed by at least four months and it would be a challenge for DMRC to complete the entire civil construction by June 2013.
