Introduction
Manila is one of the great cities of Asia. It 'a city of about sixteen million people, some very serious challenges, transportation. In the past, experts have been extensive studies of transport planners to the conclusion that the Metro Manila bound mass transit system to solve congestion. Since 2008, three Elevated Rail Transport System (ERTS) have been constructed, but these systems are not integrated and do not really serve the core businessDistrict of Makati, nor any of its satellite activities and the residential area of Fort Bonifacio. What we need is an integrated system that only make the movement of passengers between the Philippine National Railway (PNR) data services and at least two of the ERT system and also a system of mass transport to Makati, Fort Bonifacio and permissions adjacent commercial and residential. In short, the subway system, which aims, good transport links provide connectivity to metersManila.
Other possible solutions are an extension of the massive structures that characterize the high ERTS present or an extension of the high cost and environmentally harmful highway systems are too expensive. What we need is an innovative and unique transport underground.
The proposal
Subway systems are not new. London, New York and Paris long-time, efficient systems. Bangkok's new subway system, the ERT is connected to this citySystem and the State Railways of Thailand. Interconnected transmission system proposed Manila, the mimic in some aspects of what emerged in Bangkok.
The subway system to connect Makati, and its residential villages, Fort Bonifacio, Mandaluyong, Pateros, Pasig / Ortigas and San Juan, an area of about twelve square miles. This is a fast access between the main business, commercial and new residential areas and in Metro Manila, and will give you readyAccess to the CBD for the population of Manila and neighboring regions (PNR from a magazine).
The proposal includes the provision of pedestrian interconnectivity with ERTS 2 and 3 and the north-south railway PNR system. The PNR interconnection, access to storage yards and maintenance facilities and as a result of a circuit track for the International Airport in Clark Pampanga. A link can be created by the U-Bahn to Nino Aquino International and nationalAirport terminals.
Engineering
Many subway systems have recently been using the high-technology Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM). In Manila, the unique geology suggests that a second approach used in the tunnel, this is the use of road machinery and medium-technology-header with semi-integrated tunnel safely and efficiently. (Note: the volcanic tuff, which is present in the basin of Manila should be easily handled by the header on the road and to ensure safety and efficiencyrapid progress tunnel.)
The use of road-header with the underground mine conveyor will allow the efficient movement Tunneling waste for collection of broken rocks that occur in underground tunnels where the "light" near the bridge crossing the river Passigato. As for the vehicles, and qualified designers who have modern metro entirely new alignment to maximize environmental and economic benefit of the favorable characteristics of advanced electric drive systemsinclude regenerative braking traction low maintenance cost.
Financing
While Manila has a large Asian metropolis with a large proportion of the population with good income, there is a percentage of the population is "low income". For the integrated mass transit affordable to low-income workers, the wage structure of the entire system must be carefully considered. The persecution of non-tariff revenue from the railroad tracks adjacent room, such asConnecting stations commercial enterprises, including the shopping streets will be sought for its revenue potential. The development of new commercial and residential areas along the subway line should be the creation of partnerships for the construction of the underground and from there to the service immediately.
It is proposed that the project does not require cash payments by the government. The financing system is the Build Own Operate (BOO), Build Own Operate Transfer to(Boot), or the like.
Progressing the metro rail project
The company's feasibility studies, including the planning and project management, transport technology options, the impact of social and financial models needed to understand whether and how the Metro project, in reality, Manila. Insurance of the geology of the proposed route is required as an important technique initial contribution. This geological survey will help determine the route;in the choice of digging equipment and the provision of information on the expected rate of progress of the excavations.
The project involves the provision of underground railway tracks, connected to a train depot to the surface, the link to the NRP, the shape of the "People Mover" for both the movement of passengers between the U-Bahn and the ERTS 2 and 3 and the selection of a rail system with excellent environmental performance and energy efficiency.
In relation to socialImpact of the Metro project is a feasibility study on the cost of the project in terms of traffic disruption during construction (to be kept to a minimum through underground tunnels), the project's benefits in terms of adding functionality to Manila and the direct and indirect jobs and income opportunities created through the underground. financial models are developed to show clearly the costs and current revenues during the construction and operation of the U-Bahndeveloped with adequate funding.
The feasibility study is scheduled for 26 weeks and leads to a decision to engage (or not) requires the latest project. 'Bankable document' A final result, if one decides to proceed.
Conclusion
These provide a great challenge for the Metro Manila with a mass of clean, efficient and environmentally friendly transport. To protect passengers riding with a first class transport system of the material for all seasonsat affordable prices is part of the challenge.
Accessibility will be done through the creation of a metro system, the minimum purchase of real estate, best use of geological features support the construction, and will require a permit to maximize the revenue rate is not guaranteed. The combination of sound engineering practices, taking into account the physical nature of the geology and landscape, the possibility of integrating the transport system and good environmentalPrinciples of design, while taking account of local social and economic factors, along with business and government support necessary to Manila Subway Rail project a reality.
