DMRC to introduce eco-friendly rickshaws,Delhi Metro to introduce eco-friendly rickshaws




In india ,Delhi Metro is the city modern symbol,delhi on the verge of coming out with a solution for a perpetual problem that has been forcing many to take to the wheels, relying less on public transport.

     

Eco-friendly rickshaws, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation feels, is the best way to help people to  reach Metro stations from their homes where a bus or a van cannot go due to a variety of reasons.
Though feeder bus is one option that has been tested with less success, the Delhi Metro feels battery-run e-rickshaws will help ferry people from their homes to stations which are either far away or located at a not-so-walkable distance.

To test waters, the Delhi Metro wants to introduce the e-rickshaws as pilot project at Chhatrapur Metro Station from where these vehicles would ferry people from home and back.


The Delhi Metro has invited Expression Of Interest from interested agencies which had similar work experience and are well-versed with the guidelines issued by “UTTIPEC” on a model of design, build, own, operate & transfer system (DBOOT) for operation of e-rickshaw.

DMRC will be providing only area for construction of infrastructure and selected operator will make his own arrangement for electricity for charging of batteries of e-rickshaw, the document says.
