In the present decade, urban transportation need to satify the requirement of the commuter to move faster and at the same time to achieve its affordability goal to the end user. In pursuit of this exploration, infrastructure built to cater the existing transportation modes & network should be utilised to provide a sustainable solution. Accordingly, it has been discussed a new ideology of utilizing the emergency walkway of the existing metro rail elevated viaduct for providing services named Emergency Rapid Transit (ERT) and Personal Rapid transit (PRT). This paper describes about the requirements, pros and cons of implementing this ideology. |
