Warangal to get advanced Metro Neo technology

Hyderabad Metro Neo technology
Telangana Government has been working on the Metro Neo project, a Mass Rapid Transit System to ensure sustainable transportation and resolve traffic congestion issues in Warangal. Unlike Hyderabad Metro Rail, the proposed Metro Neo for Warangal will be equipped with different technology and signalling system and will have articulated rubber-wheeled electric coaches with overhead traction system, which is generally called the Metro Neo system. The overhead traction will run on partially elevated and partially at Grade Corridor (ground level). Advanced signalling and telecommunications systems will be utilized for Warangal Metro Neo. It will be equipped with a suitable Automatic Train Protection (ATP) system with anti-collision devices. Traffic lights will be installed at major locations and the coaches will be operated by drivers at a pre-defined speed limit. Regarding telecommunications, it will include automatic vehicle monitoring, mobile radio communication system, on-board passenger information system, public address system, central voice recording system and central fault locating system. The Warangal Metro is proposed to be operated on a corridor covering 15.5 km on the Kazipet-Hanamkonda-Warangal via the DPO junction route.
