NCRTC selects unique ‘precast slab track system’ for upcoming high-speed Rapid Rail corridor

To have an efficient and qualified rail track system to run the high-speed rapid rail, the National Capital Regional Transport Corporation (NCRTC) has decided to construct a unique Precast Slab Track System for the upcoming Rapid Rail Transit Corridor (RRTS), officials have said.

The technology is being used for the first time in India in the construction of the first regional rail of the country. The Precast Track Slab technology produces high-capacity ballastless track slabs that have a longer life cycle and require less maintenance. Due to this, the overall life-cycle cost of the track is also low.
