Introduction
A vision for the city
A multimodal strategy
Towards a mass transit master plan
A first mass transit line to be studied
Characteristics of a first level of mass transit for Mandalay
High-capacity system (gt 15000 passengershourdirection)
Able to go out of the city
Separated from other traffics (cars motorcycles buses pedestrians) no level crossing
But still well integrated in the city
Opportunity of the railway system
A railway network that covers the main corridors both inside the city
and towards Sagaing Southern extensions etc
A relatively low number of trains leaving large capacities to insert urban
and suburban trains
An infrastructure to be renewed possibly with 3 or 4 rails to accommodate to
different gauges (meter and standard) + electric power supply + new signaling system
and of course new vehicles
Urban train concepts
Many cities have developed railway systems that serve as a metro in the city and
as a suburban train outside sharing tracks with long distance and freight trains on
some sections
Generally only some of the trains go out of the city (eg 1 out of 3) because more
transport capacity is needed inside the city
These systems can be called metro tram-train light rail regional express network etc

Mass transit level 2 for Mandalay
Characteristics of a second level of mass
transit for Mandalay
An intermediate level between the metro and the
bus network
Capacity of 3000~5000 passengershourdirection
Easy integration in the main arterials (~70 ft 22 m
wide)
Catchment areas complementary to the 1st level
Much lower cost than the metro
Possibility of faster implementation than the metro
Bus-based solutions
ldquoBus Rapid Transitrdquo (BRT) or ldquoBus with a High Level
of Servicerdquo (BHLS) concepts
Bus-based solution but with fully different
image and performances than usual bus lines

A first mass transit line to be studied
Characteristics of a first level of mass transit for Mandalay
High-capacity system (gt 15000 passengershourdirection)
Able to go out of the city
Separated from other traffics (cars motorcycles buses pedestrians) no level crossing
But still well integrated in the city
Opportunity of the railway system
A railway network that covers the main corridors both inside the city
and towards Sagaing Southern extensions etc
A relatively low number of trains leaving large capacities to insert urban
and suburban trains
An infrastructure to be renewed possibly with 3 or 4 rails to accommodate to
different gauges (meter and standard) + electric power supply + new signaling system
and of course new vehicles
Urban train concepts
Many cities have developed railway systems that serve as a metro in the city and
as a suburban train outside sharing tracks with long distance and freight trains on
some sections
Generally only some of the trains go out of the city (eg 1 out of 3) because more
transport capacity is needed inside the city
These systems can be called metro tram-train light rail regional express network etc

High-capacity system (gt 15000 passengershourdirection)

But still well integrated in the city
Opportunity of the railway system
A railway network that covers the main corridors both inside the city
and towards Sagaing Southern extensions etc
A relatively low number of trains leaving large capacities to insert urban
and suburban trains
An infrastructure to be renewed possibly with 3 or 4 rails to accommodate to
different gauges (meter and standard) + electric power supply + new signaling system
and of course new vehicles
Urban train concepts
Many cities have developed railway systems that serve as a metro in the city and
as a suburban train outside sharing tracks with long distance and freight trains on
some sections
Generally only some of the trains go out of the city (eg 1 out of 3) because more
transport capacity is needed inside the city
These systems can be called metro tram-train light rail regional express network etc

Introduction
A vision for the city
A multimodal strategy
Towards a mass transit master plan
A first mass transit line to be studied
Characteristics of a first level of mass transit for Mandalay
High-capacity system (gt 15000 passengershourdirection)
Able to go out of the city
Separated from other traffics (cars motorcycles buses pedestrians) no level crossing
But still well integrated in the city
Opportunity of the railway system
A railway network that covers the main corridors both inside the city
and towards Sagaing Southern extensions etc
A relatively low number of trains leaving large capacities to insert urban
and suburban trains
An infrastructure to be renewed possibly with 3 or 4 rails to accommodate to
different gauges (meter and standard) + electric power supply + new signaling system
and of course new vehicles
Urban train concepts
Many cities have developed railway systems that serve as a metro in the city and
as a suburban train outside sharing tracks with long distance and freight trains on
some sections
Generally only some of the trains go out of the city (eg 1 out of 3) because more
transport capacity is needed inside the city
These systems can be called metro tram-train light rail regional express network etc

Characteristics of a first level of mass transit for Mandalay
High-capacity system (gt 15000 passengershourdirection)
Able to go out of the city
Separated from other traffics (cars motorcycles buses pedestrians) no level crossing
But still well integrated in the city
Opportunity of the railway system
A railway network that covers the main corridors both inside the city
and towards Sagaing Southern extensions etc
A relatively low number of trains leaving large capacities to insert urban
and suburban trains
An infrastructure to be renewed possibly with 3 or 4 rails to accommodate to
different gauges (meter and standard) + electric power supply + new signaling system
and of course new vehicles
Urban train concepts
Many cities have developed railway systems that serve as a metro in the city and
as a suburban train outside sharing tracks with long distance and freight trains on
some sections
Generally only some of the trains go out of the city (eg 1 out of 3) because more
transport capacity is needed inside the city
These systems can be called metro tram-train light rail regional express network etc

A vision for the city
A multimodal strategy
Towards a mass transit master plan
A first mass transit line to be studied
Characteristics of a first level of mass transit for Mandalay
High-capacity system (gt 15000 passengershourdirection)
Able to go out of the city
Separated from other traffics (cars motorcycles buses pedestrians) no level crossing
But still well integrated in the city
Opportunity of the railway system
A railway network that covers the main corridors both inside the city
and towards Sagaing Southern extensions etc
A relatively low number of trains leaving large capacities to insert urban
and suburban trains
An infrastructure to be renewed possibly with 3 or 4 rails to accommodate to
different gauges (meter and standard) + electric power supply + new signaling system
and of course new vehicles
Urban train concepts
Many cities have developed railway systems that serve as a metro in the city and
as a suburban train outside sharing tracks with long distance and freight trains on
some sections
Generally only some of the trains go out of the city (eg 1 out of 3) because more
transport capacity is needed inside the city
These systems can be called metro tram-train light rail regional express network etc

Many cities have developed railway systems that serve as a metro in the city and
as a suburban train outside sharing tracks with long distance and freight trains on
some sections
Generally only some of the trains go out of the city (eg 1 out of 3) because more
transport capacity is needed inside the city
These systems can be called metro tram-train light rail regional express network etc

High-capacity system (gt 15000 passengershourdirection)
Able to go out of the city
Separated from other traffics (cars motorcycles buses pedestrians) no level crossing
But still well integrated in the city
Opportunity of the railway system
A railway network that covers the main corridors both inside the city
and towards Sagaing Southern extensions etc
A relatively low number of trains leaving large capacities to insert urban
and suburban trains
An infrastructure to be renewed possibly with 3 or 4 rails to accommodate to
different gauges (meter and standard) + electric power supply + new signaling system
and of course new vehicles
Urban train concepts
Many cities have developed railway systems that serve as a metro in the city and
as a suburban train outside sharing tracks with long distance and freight trains on
some sections
Generally only some of the trains go out of the city (eg 1 out of 3) because more
transport capacity is needed inside the city
These systems can be called metro tram-train light rail regional express network etc

Introduction
A vision for the city
A multimodal strategy
Towards a mass transit master plan
A first mass transit line to be studied
Characteristics of a first level of mass transit for Mandalay
High-capacity system (gt 15000 passengershourdirection)
Able to go out of the city
Separated from other traffics (cars motorcycles buses pedestrians) no level crossing
But still well integrated in the city
Opportunity of the railway system
A railway network that covers the main corridors both inside the city
and towards Sagaing Southern extensions etc
A relatively low number of trains leaving large capacities to insert urban
and suburban trains
An infrastructure to be renewed possibly with 3 or 4 rails to accommodate to
different gauges (meter and standard) + electric power supply + new signaling system
and of course new vehicles
Urban train concepts
Many cities have developed railway systems that serve as a metro in the city and
as a suburban train outside sharing tracks with long distance and freight trains on
some sections
Generally only some of the trains go out of the city (eg 1 out of 3) because more
transport capacity is needed inside the city
These systems can be called metro tram-train light rail regional express network etc
