See below an excerpt from Er. Aditya Singh's Chapter:
"Bengaluru Suburban Rail project is also known as Bengaluru Commuter Rail and it consists of railway network which is supposed to run through the Bengaluru city and connecting the nearby suburban areas around the city."
The Development and Significance of Bengaluru Suburban Rail Project
The suburban rail project in Bengaluru city in the Karnataka state of India will address the local mass travel needs from Bengaluru city to nearby towns or satellite cities.
The traditional urban transportation systems around the globe are now being transferred into green public transportation systems in an effort to mitigate CO2 emissions and provide nature-friendly transportation systems in cities and, ultimately, to increase citizens’ wellbeing. Furthermore, the cities are expected to transform their traditional transportation systems to cutting-edge high technology green transportation systems in the near future due to regulations applied by the related authorities such as the EU and UN. At the same time, cities are undergoing a transformation from traditional to smart cities, which is an inevitable process due to swift developments in technologies and smart systems. Sustainable public transportation systems must be developed and adjusted to be applicable in future smart cities.
