Delhi Metroneo
The Delhi Metroneo is a planned Metrolite system with 21 stations that will connect Kirti Nagar to Bamnoli Village via Mayapuri, Hari Nagar, Tihar Jail, Dwarka Sector 2, Sector 7, Sector 6, Sector 20, and Sector 23, and the Dwarka ECC. Earlier the corridor was planned as a Metrolite but in November 2020, the project was cancelled, replacing the corridor with Metro Neo by the DMRC officials. It will be designed as per MoHUA's Metrolite specifications, and will be much cheaper to construct because of its lower speeds and carrying capacities compared to regular metros. Detailed Project Report (DPR) for this line was approved by DMRC's board in October 2019, and is currently awaiting the Delhi Government's approval. Stations The stations proposed for the Metro Neo are: See also * Metrolite * Delhi Metro The Delhi Metro is a rapid transit system that serves Delhi and the adjoining satellite cities of Faridabad, Gurugram, Noida, Bahadurgarh, and Ballabhgarh in the N ...

Communications-based Train Control
Communications-based train control (CBTC) is a railway signaling system that uses telecommunications between the train and track equipment for traffic management and infrastructure control. CBTC allows a train's position to be known more accurately than with traditional signaling systems. This can make railway traffic management safer and more efficient. Rapid transit systems (and other railway systems) are able to reduce headways while maintaining or even improving safety. A CBTC system is a "continuous, automatic train control system utilizing high-resolution train location determination, independent from track circuits; continuous, high-capacity, bidirectional train-to-wayside data communications; and trainborne and wayside processors capable of implementing automatic train protection (ATP) functions, as well as optional automatic train operation (ATO) and automatic train supervision (ATS) functions," as defined in the IEEE 1474 standard.1474.1–1999 – IEEE Standard fo ...
