An efficient and integrated transportation system is essential for any developed or developing country. Transport drives productivity, improves the quality of life and, carefully planned, is good for the environment. An affordable, sustainable passenger and freight railway service is a vital component of a nation’s economic success. Railways are the safest form of mass transportation. World-wide, more than 160 cities already have rapid transit passenger systems with another 25 under construction. Urban Rapid Transit Systems are usually built in underground tunnels or elevated above street level and have unrivalled ability to transport huge numbers of people efficiently, quickly and safely over short distances with little land use.
