Hi,
Sorry to barge in
But you are wrong. The capacity can be increased to much more than 400%
Now the trains have 4 coaches which can be extended to 8.
Now the trains have the frequency of 5-15 min. it can be increased to 90 seconds. You can do the math
Also, the overcrowding that you are seeing right now will get eased off once metro start getting new coaches and trains, which are in shortage now.
I think with expansion of metro route, its gonna become the primary means of transport in delhi NCR.
The attitude of people in NCR to show-off their vehicle will slowly leave way once the new generation having much more exposure to the phenomenon of global warming and value of time, replace the old one.
