Every year thousands of people lose their life or are injured due to trespassing. The number of accidental deaths & injuries are increasing day by day as the number of passengers is increasing. The main reasons of trespassing are: (i) Overcrowding at stations due to insufficient platform widths, inadequate number of FOBs and last minute announcement of change of platform during arrival / departure of the train. (ii) The facilities provided for safe commuter movement are not commuter friendly e.g.FOB height, absence of escalators, elevators, ramps etc. (iii) Easy access areas for trespassing eg: Small ramp at both the ends of the platform, inadequate height of fencing between tracks. (iv) Lack of safe access to human settlement residing along the track, garbage sorters, vendors etc.and minimum connectivity between east and west side of station near level crossing. (v) Trespassing to avoid Octroi (duty) or penalty. (vi) Apart from the above, there is a behavioral issue as people are accustomed to trespassing and it has become a default behavioral tendency. Taking the trespassing issue into prime consideration, MRVC have undertaken a project for providing remedial measures to minimize the trespassing on railway tracks. The primary philosophy of providing an effective solution to reduce trespassing is to create facilities that ensure easy & safe commuter movement on the railway stations. These facilities include: Foot over bridges (FOB), Railing & barricades, Green patches, Boundary walls, Re-organization of built-spaces such as booking office, station manager office, toilet blocks etc. and providing facilities, which improve easy movement and dispersal of commuters e.g. Escalators, elevators, ramps and walkways. In the first phase, MRVC has selected 12 stations to implement the facilities to prevent trespassing. The stations are Kanjurmarg, Thane, Kalyan, Thakurli, Kurla and Dadar on central railway and Dadar, Kandivali, Borivali, Bhayander, Vasai Road, and Nalasopara on the western railway.The World Bank (WB) funds this project. The initial interventions provided at each station are summarized in Table 1: Summary of Interventions. These were finalized after studying alternatives available, site visits, studying the feasibility at site and consultation with stakeholders. The final design adopted and presented in Table 2: General Arrangement Drawings. The project includes green measures such in green patches, maximum use of natural light at the facilities, incorporation of energy saving and efficient lightings. The renewable energy source options such as use of solar panel for lighting was also considered in Page |1 Detailed Design and Drawing for Controlling Trespassing over Railway Tracks of Suburban Railways at Station areas in Mumbai Best International Practice (BIP) but was not incorporated due to high initial costs and issue of procurement and inventory management during operation. The initial solution offered are presented in tabular form (refer Table 1: Summary of Interventions). After completion of field investigation and survey, the various alternatives were considered for each solution and by visiting the field locations along with Clients representatives from to specialized departments like (Civil, Electrical, Signal & Telecom, OHE etc.) the feasibility was ascertained by modification in location. The finalized proposals have been identified and incorporated in the respective General Arrangement Drawings (GAD) prepared for each station. The list of such General Arrangement Drawings are presented in Table 2: General Arrangement Drawings. Environment Management Plan (EMP) and Social Management Plan (SMP) are the major outputs of environmental& social studies conducted for the project. The main objective of EMP& SMP is to delineate mitigation measures and monitoring requirements during pre-construction, construction, and operational phases of the project. The EMP is prepared based on the guidelines specified under Indian Regulatory Framework as well guidelines/ policies of WB. Summary of key environmental and social issues, mitigation measures and implementation plan is presented in Table 3: Key Environmental and Social Issues, Mitigation Measures and Implementation Plan. The contractor shall be responsible to implement the SMP and EMP. Key performance indicators, which provide linkages between impacts and mitigation measures, are identified in the EMP/ SMP. The key performance indicators during Construction Phase are land and soil degradation, ambient air quality, ambient noise levels, land contamination due to asbestos and health and safety of workers, commuters and persons residing near construction area. Environment Management Plan (EMP) Cell will be set up. This EMP Cell shall include additional capacities to oversee and supervise the social issues and impacts. Some of the basic activities to be taken up by EMP cell are monitoring the implementation of the EMP/ SMP and community health and safety issues.A feedback mechanism is included in the EMP/ SMP to provide scope for modifications of mitigation measures & procedures to reshape the project in the light of EMP/ SMP monitoring results.EMP/ SMP shall be updated as and when required in a manner agreeable to the WB based on findings during EMP/ SMP implementation and monitoring and in the event of any new activities undertaken. This project requires stakeholder’s consultations prior to the implementation. A stakeholder consultation report is prepared for the project (This is a separate document). To ensure that mitigation measures and monitoring are adequately funded, bill of quantities (BOQ) & tentative costs for implementation of EMP are identified.Detailed cost estimates for capital and operating costs are included in overall project costs. A Grievance Redressal Mechanism (GRM) cell will be formed and shared for the project as a whole by MRVC. This will be communicated with stakeholders. GRM will be able to effectively respond to the concerns and grievances received.

INTRODUCTION Mumbai’s suburban railway system (Refer figure below) is the most efficient, dependable, economical and the fastest mode of transportation available in Mumbai. It is like a lifeline for the city of Mumbai without which the city would grind to a halt. As per Mumbai Rail Vikas Corporation, approximately 7.40 million people use local trains to commute daily. Every year thousands of people lose their life / are injured due to trespassing on the three main railway corridors. The number of accidental deaths & injuries are increasing day by day as the number of passengers is increasing. In order to curb the trespassing, MRVC appointed Sir JJ College of Architecture as their consultants to study thoroughly the issue of trespassing, and suggest remedial measures to minimize the trespassing on railway tracks. After a survey of both central and western suburban railway, reviews of casualty figures and trespassing hotspots at different locations, and in consultation with MRVC, Sir JJ College of Architecture have identified 12 stations to be considered for the implementation of trespassing controlling measures over railway tracks of suburban railways at station areas in Mumbai (i) Central Railway- Dadar, Kurla , Kanjurmarg , Thane , Thakurli, Kalyan, (ii) Western Railway – Dadar, Kandivali, Borivali, Vasai Road , Bhayandar, Nalasopara. Page |9 Detailed Design and Drawing for Controlling Trespassing over Railway Tracks of Suburban Railways at Station areas in Mumbai The main reasons for trespassing- i. Width of the platforms is insufficient to cater to the overcrowding on the platform. (All stations) ii. Numbers of Foot over bridges (FOB) are insufficient to cater to the peak hour needs of passenger traffic leading to lot of overcrowding on the FOB. (All stations) iii. The heights of the FOBs are very high and hence not user friendly. iv. There are limited facilities (escalators, elevators, ramps) available for physically handicapped people & senior citizens. (All stations) v. Small ramp at both the ends of the platform also encourages trespassing. (All stations) vi. Last minute announcement of change of platform during arrival / departure of the train. ( All stations) vii. Human settlement along the track also leads to regular trespassing by the inhabitants. (All stations) viii. Inadequate height of fencing between tracks encourages people to jump from platform on to the track & climb the fencing to reach the other platform, thus leading to serious trespassing. (At Thane, Kalyan, Kurla, Dadar central and western, Kandivali, Bhayander, Vasai Road ) ix. There are vendors selling vegetables & other household products along the railway tracks in the vicinity of the platform at either end, this leads to trespassing. (At Kurla, Dadar central and western, Bhayander, Vasai Road, Nalasopara) x. Minimum connectivity between east and west near level crossing. eg. Flyovers, skywalks, etc. The time taken to cross from east to west and vice-versa using flyover is very long due to heavy traffic. This leads or forces commutes to use level- crossing. (Thakurli, Kalyan, Kurla, Dadarcentral,Kandivali ) xi. People trespass at certain locations in order to save Octroi tax. (Kalyan , Thakur, Bhayander) xii. Exceptional circumstances like medical emergency, person with heavy luggage, etc.also lead to trespassing. xiii. Garbage sorters are regular trespassers. xiv. People travelling without proper ticket trespass in order to avoid being penalized xv. People are accustomed to trespassing and it has become a default behavioral tendency P a g e | 10 Detailed Design and Drawing for Controlling Trespassing over Railway Tracks of Suburban Railways at Station areas in Mumbai xvi. No proper access provided for human settlements/encroachment occurring within railway premises. Due to this, residents have no choice but to use railway track causing serious trespassing. (Kurla, Kandivali). Description of each station and identified trespassing locations are presented in this chapter. The solutions provided for control of trespassing, their impacts during construction and operation phase and mitigation plan be described in subsequent chapters and Appendices. 1.1 KANJURMARG This is a station on the central suburban railway line. This station has in all two platforms. Kanjurmarg east is largely populated as compared to Kanjurmarg west. However, commuters staying on western line as well as in Powai use the station and hence the maximum discharge of commuters is from the west. There are 2 FOBs. One at southern end and other at northern end. There are two elevated ticket windows on the FOB. Identified trespassing locations are: A. South ends of platform no 1, B. North end of platform no 2.

SOLUTIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS Solutions & Recommendations to Control Trespassing and Facilitate Commuter Movements- The primary philosophy of providing a solution to control trespassing is “prevention is effective only if provided facilities ensure easy commuter movement at the railway stations.” The major trespassing control measures include: (i) FOB (ii) Track barricades (iii) Green patch (iv) R.C.C. wall/ Steel Fencing (v) Re-Organization of built-spaces (vi) Walkways 2.1 CONTROL TRESPASSING To control trespassing at each stage, these facilities have been chosen keeping in mind the practicality and low cost of the solutions. Effective signage is proposed on all platforms and FOBs so that people are directed in an easier and faster way. Elevators, escalators & ramps have been proposed (where feasible) to improve usage of FOB and to improve movement of physically challenged persons and commuters carrying luggage. Awareness will be created through posters, audio-visuals etc. Following value added features are included in the design: 2.1.1 Foot Over Bridge (FOB)  Advertisement boards have been proposed along the length of the FOB.  The side railing of the FOB is proposed to be 2m high for safety reasons having ventilators at the bottom.  Fins are proposed above 2m on both sides and covered using aluminium composite panels (ACP) on the southern side.  The design prevents the rainwater from coming on to the FOB. 2.1.2 Track Barricades  The design of the railing is such that height of every rod is constant with respect to its adjoining one, which will act as a stiffener for the top & bottom circular pipe. In P a g e | 24 Detailed Design and Drawing for Controlling Trespassing over Railway Tracks of Suburban Railways at Station areas in Mumbai order to have aesthetic of the railing, the end portion is rounded & railing is designed in such a way that it will not be injurious.  The chosen design facilitates the easy fixing of advertisement panels.  The middle portion is kept for displaying advertisement panels, which will generate revenue to maintain the railing. 2.1.3 Green Patch  All season, non-scanty, rapid growing, locally available, low cost plants requiring minimum maintenance and suitable to the local conditions will be planted.  Plants proposed on the periphery are rapid growing which ensures protection to the inner plants.  In section, varying levels are created breaking the monotony thus making it look aesthetically pleasing. Proposed landscaping has different colored plants for example yellow, green that creates visual attentiveness.  The proposed plants are heavily branched hence creating barrier and thus preventing trespassing  In plan, the pattern is radial. 2.1.4 R.C.C. wall /Steel Fencing For Trespassing control, the proposed RCC wall and fencing details presented in General Arrangement Drawings. 2.1.5 Re-Organization of built-spaces Reorganization of office spaces is maximum at Borivali and Kalyan station with intention of improvement in commuter’s movement. 2.1.6 Walkways Station wise description of facilities to be provided for controlling trespassing are presented in Social screening checklist. Details of interventions provided at each station are summarized in Table 4: Summary of Interventions at Stations (Major interventions). P a g e | 25 Detailed Design and Drawing for Controlling Trespassing over Railway Tracks of Suburban Railways at Station areas in Mumbai 2.2 GREEN MEASURES BUILT IN THE PROJECT The project includes green measures such as maximum use of natural light at the facilities, incorporation of energy saving and energy efficient lightings. The renewable energy source options such as use of solar panel for lighting was also considered in Best in International practice (BIP) but was not incorporated due to economic reasons e.g. High initial cost and procurement of inventories required during operation. The initial solution offered are presented in tabular form (refer Table 1: Summary of Interventions). The various alternatives were considered for each solutions and by visiting the field locations along with Clients representatives belonging to specialized departments like (Civil, Electrical, signal& telecom, OHE etc.) the feasibility was ascertained with modification in location and connectivity issues. It have been identified and incorporated in the respective “General Arrangement Drawings” (GAD) prepared for each station.

ENVIRONMENT AND SOCIAL MANAGEMENT PLAN 3.1 OBJECTIVE OF THE TASK Environment Management Plan (EMP) is the major output of environmental studies conducted for the project. The main objective of EMP is to delineate mitigation measures and monitoring requirements during pre-construction, construction, and operational phases of the project. The EMP is prepared based on the guidelines specified under Indian Regulatory Framework as well guidelines/ policies of World Bank (WB). 3.2 ACTIVITIES TO BE UNDERTAKEN IN THIS TASK  Reconnaissance visits to site for understanding the project and to collect the first hand information about the project area and to develop the methodology and work program.  Review of Indian Regulatory Framework and its applicability (refer Table 5: Indian Environmental Regulations and Legislation Framework for details.)  Review of applicable Environmental policies and guidelines of World Bank (refer Table 6: Applicable World Bank Safeguard Policies: Applicable World Bank Safeguard Policies).  Review relevant health, safety and environmental policies of Railways  Review of the project report and other study reports  Understand the impacts of the projects through site visits, study of reports and other document  Develop mitigation measures for the identified impacts 3.3 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN 3.3.1 Summary of Impacts Environmental management plan for pre-construction phase, construction phase and operation phase is presented in Table 7: Environmental Management Plan. Predicted adverse environmental impacts that must be mitigated are summarized. 3.3.2 Proposed Mitigation Measures Mitigation measures are proposed for all significant adverse impacts. The measures proportionately address the impacts and specify conditions under which the measures are required. The measures are incorporated in designs, development activities, equipment descriptions, and operating procedures and implementation responsibilities. P a g e | 30 Detailed Design and Drawing for Controlling Trespassing over Railway Tracks of Suburban Railways at Station areas in Mumbai 3.4 SOCIAL MANAGEMENT PLAN Social screening was conducted as per the checklist provided by WB. (Refer Chapter 9- Social screening checklists). The screening process enhances the social sustainability of project. The screening focuses on the social benefits of project, identifies, and manages social risks that could be associated with project. This aspect of screening focuses on the possible social costs of an intervention and may point to the need for social review and management. Social Management Plan is outcome of social study conducted for the project and presented in Table 8: Social Management Plan The report is based on following key observations: 3.4.1 Land Requirement As per the current scope of work, the project design and layout would not require any private land acquisition, as all proposed activities will be carried out on existing land under the ownership of Indian Railways. There is no social impact due to acquisition of land. 3.4.2 Project Social Footprint Construction phase would require sharing of access roads as well as using adjacent land for storage of material or temporary hutments for project labour and may temporary affect commuter movement. However, Construction Work Plan is prepared to minimize the impacts. 3.4.3 Cultivation on Railway Land and Impacts on Livelihoods The World Bank guidelines recognize all formal and informal rights of users to land and hence cultivators or any households to be relocated are to be provided assistance. Currently, it is understood that area around Kanjurmarg (West) and Kandivali (East) project sites has been licensed for cultivation purpose as per the terms and conditions of the “Addendum on Utilization of Railway land for Grow More Food Purpose”. Some of the salient features of this agreement include: (i) The site is not licensed to the employee for more than 5 years at a stretch and initial licensing would be for two years with the period being determined by the crop year in the area. (ii) The licenses cannot transfer the use of land or its tenancy to a third party. (iii) Railway can terminate such license after serving a month notice in advance. (iv) It is not ruled out that the licensee may have in some cases sought assistance from outside agricultural workers for their cultivation work and produce was sold out in the open market. MRVC/CR/WR will notify them in advance prior to terminating contracts as per the set rules and regulations. P a g e | 31 Detailed Design and Drawing for Controlling Trespassing over Railway Tracks of Suburban Railways at Station areas in Mumbai (v) Also at Kanjurmarg station, the canteens/ stalls on existing platforms will be relocated. The relocation will take place only after the new facilities are ready so that the impact on the livelihood shall be minimum. 3.4.4 Existence of Hutments and Encroachment Issues Some of the sites, particularly Thane (East) south side, Kurla (Trombay line) and Kandivali (East) have hutments and encroachment issues. These are residents of low-income housing as well as densely populated slum settlements, shop owners, vendors etc. Most of them are residing within railway premises and/ or share common boundary wall with Railways. It appears that there is no major issue such as resettlement/ relocation etc. as the facilities are not planned on the settlement area. However, the population may get affected during the construction phase. The primary concerns are likely impacts of elevated noise levels, deterioration of ambient air qualities etc. However, MRVC in consultation with contractor shall ensure the appropriate EMPs are implemented to minimize the environmental impacts due to project activities. The population will be protected from accidents and safety risks during construction Phase by:  Risk identification and evaluation of possible risks  Communication regarding technical aspects of construction activity and alley fears about accidents (through handouts, pictorial display and signage in local language)  Barricade the construction area  Bring community representatives to construction site and explain health and safety aspects and mitigation measures employed  Training of contractor staff 3.4.5 Impact on Access& Alternate Routes Provided During the construction phase, contractor is likely to provide paved access road to all the site locations. While several locations have access through an existing public work department road, the construction phase is likely to affect the access of other stakeholders in the vicinity, particularly local residents or even inhabitants of shanties and slums. These impacts may be in terms of: (i) Blockage of access due to the width of the existing access route and the vehicular and human traffic on the same; and P a g e | 32 Detailed Design and Drawing for Controlling Trespassing over Railway Tracks of Suburban Railways at Station areas in Mumbai (ii) Loss of access in certain areas for the community to common property resources like rickshaw stand, bus depot, skywalks, market, pond, roads etc. The likely places are- Movement at the places such as bus stands (Kurla), vegetable market (Bhayander & Nalasopara), rickshaw stand (Vasai road) scooter stand (Kandivali), traffic at Tilak bridge area (Dadar Central and Western) may get partly affected during construction phase. Contractor will follow the traffic management plan, construction work plan and EMP to ensure that the impacts are minimum. At Kanjurmarg, Kandivali, Bhayander&Nalasopara, either stations alternate routes will be created or new pathways will be created by covering the drains near the platforms. It will be ensured that commuter’s direct access to the Railway stations will not be affected. (Refer ANNEXURE – I: Entry exit plan) 3.4.6 Operation and Decommissioning Activities (i) As the existing land belongs to the Railway, no significant social impacts are likely to be generated. However, there are project activities involving dismantling/ relocation of existing Railway structures: (ii) Thakurli Station: OFC room, store room, DG room & shed nearby, UCR and other railway sheds, traction substation on the West side of station, in the area where new platform will be constructed. (iii) Kurla Station: Section engineers office and shed, toilets located at the construction site where present FOB (Ch: 15.331) will be extended to East. (iv) Dadar: Railway sheds, police station, Deputy Chief Engineer’s offices between Central and Western Railway lines. Water tank and pump house, toilets and hording near Tilak bridge within Western Railway premises. (v) Kandivali: Relocation of toilet, booking office, police station, station manager office, DYSS office from platform no. 1 to platform 2,3. (vi) Borivali: Platform 1 widening- staff offices, stalls, ticket booking office, SE work 2, RPF 3.4.7 Community Health and Safety The construction phase, which would last, for an average of twelve to twenty four months from the start of activities will involve several activities that can be a potential health hazard to the community. These include but are not limited to: P a g e | 33 Detailed Design and Drawing for Controlling Trespassing over Railway Tracks of Suburban Railways at Station areas in Mumbai (i) Construction site health hazards and those related to increases in traffic, making the access roads and the periphery of the site accident prone; (ii) Potential impacts from communicable diseases or lack of hygiene on the local communities; and (iii) Potential health & safety affect the workers due to construction eg. Exposure to dust, noise, hazardous operations etc. Based on the above key observations, social management plan prepared and is presented in Table 8: Social Management Plan. 3.4.8 Stakeholder Consultation and Communication The observations and recommendations listed in social management plan (SMP) are based on the discussions with the identified stakeholders and the overall understanding of the project. A stakeholder analysis was been conducted between June to December 2013 with the objective of: (i) Identify each stakeholder group for the proposed project (ii) Study their profile and characteristics and the nature of their interest in the project (iii) Understand the specific issues, concerns as well as expectations from the project that each group holds. The Stakeholders details are provided in Table 9: Stakeholders List and Their Role in the Project is prepared which provide details of consultation. Following is incorporated in the design because of stakeholder consultation: (i) Increase in number of escalators, lifts (ii) New user friendly locations of FOB (iii) Interconnection of FOBS, walkways (iv) Security in terms of CCTV (v) Convenient locations of facilities such as booking offices, toilets etc. (vi) Signage’s (vii) Identification of disposal facility for hazardous waste ( Asbestos) During project construction, selected contractor shall prepare a communication plan in consultation with MRVC during the construction phase to inform and disclose project related information to the local community in the vicinity. However, MRVC / WR/CR. will coordinate entire communication with stakeholders. P a g e | 34 Detailed Design and Drawing for Controlling Trespassing over Railway Tracks of Suburban Railways at Station areas in Mumbai 3.4.9 Implementing SMP Contractor will form an Environment Management Plan (EMP) Cell. This EMP Cell shall include additional capacities to oversee and supervise the social issues and impacts. Some of the basic skills activities to take up SMP implementation are: (i) Community Health and Safety Issues; (ii) Management of conflict issues; and (iii) Monitoring the implementation of the SMP/ EMP (iv) MRVC’s environmental and social expert will oversee the operation of EMP cell. MRVC in consultation with central and western railways shall ensure that the execution of the project is carried out as per the terms and conditions included in the tender document issued to the contractor. The contractor shall be responsible to implement the SMP and EMPs. The engineer assigned by the MRVC/CR/WR shall be responsible for ensuring safe and proper working condition throughout the project execution. 3.5 MONITORING PROGRAMS &EVALUATION OF EMP/ SMP IMPLEMENTATION Specific monitoring protocols, parameters, and expected frequencies are specified in Table 10: Environmental Monitoring Plan. A feedback mechanism is included in the EMP/ SMP to provide scope for modifications of mitigation measures & procedures to reshape the project in the light of EMP/ SMP monitoring results. EMP/ SMP shall be updated as and when required in a manner agreeable to the WB based on findings during EMP/ SMP implementation and monitoring and in the event of any new activities undertaken. 3.6 INSTITUTIONAL CAPACITY BUILDING EMP also specify institutional responsibilities for contractors, local authorities, and funding institutions by identifying their roles in preparation, submission, receipt, review, and approval the reports. EMP cell will be set up by contractor to oversee and supervise EMP implementation and monitoring. The EMP Cell must be given the additional responsibility of looking at potential social issues and impacts around every location. EMP Cell must disseminate information to any interested local stakeholders about the proposed activities and measures to minimize impacts. EMP Cell will ensure that contractor and their workers are adequately trained to address safety and environmental issues in the construction phase. P a g e | 35 Detailed Design and Drawing for Controlling Trespassing over Railway Tracks of Suburban Railways at Station areas in Mumbai The success of EMP also depends upon the efficiency of organizational set up responsible for the implementation. The recommended institutional arrangement for EMP implementation is presented in Figure 1: Institutional Set UP for EMP 3.7 KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS Environmental performance indicators, which provide linkages between impacts and mitigation measures, are identified in EMP. Key performance indicators during Construction Phase are: Environmental Parameter Monitoring parameters Standards Ambient air quality SO2, SPM, RPM, CO, NOx, NAAQS HC Ambient noise levels Leq day and Leq night NAAQS calculated based ion hourly equivalent noise levels observed Soil quality Hydrocarbons due to leakages/ EPA Act spillages of storage material Land Asbestos contamination and As per MPCB guidelines storage (Hazardous waste disposal) Health and Safety of Filled safety permits As per Factories Act Workers, commuters and Accident/ incident reporting Aiming for zero accident/ persons residing near incident construction area The key performance indicators during operation phase will be reduction in number / percentage in trespassing and the casualties. The other parameter includes monitoring of unsafe incidences if any due to the new facilities provided and there trend analysis. 3.8 PUBLIC CONSULTATION ACTIVITIES The SMP includes public consultation activities to be undertaken before initialization of project. The degree of consultation includes- (i) Notification when project activities are going to take place; (ii) Disclosure of the results of monitoring programs to relevant stakeholders; (iii) Provision for independent third party monitoring, where necessary. This report excludes details of stakeholder consultations as they are summarized in STAKEHOLDERS CONSULTATION REPORT prepared for this project. P a g e | 36 Detailed Design and Drawing for Controlling Trespassing over Railway Tracks of Suburban Railways at Station areas in Mumbai 3.9 COST ESTIMATES To ensure that mitigation measures and monitoring are adequately funded the bill of quantities (BOQ) & tentative costs for implementation of EMP are identified and presented in Table 11: BOQ for Environment Management Plan. Detailed cost estimates for capital and operating costs are included in overall project costs. The cost of green belt is also excluded from BOQs are they are included as a separate item under overall BOQ 3.10 GRIEVANCE REDRESSAL MECHANISM CELL A Grievance Redressal Mechanism cell will be formed and the details will be shared to all concern stakeholders by MRVC. Some of the elements of the grievances redressal process include:  The MRVC will appoint/nominate Project Manager any of their Dy CPM.of the cell.  MRVC and contractor will represent the cell equally.  Cell will display roles and responsibilities of Contractor, WR and CR and MRVC.  The phone numbers and communication addresses will be displayed at various locations near construction site  Cell will respond to the concerns and grievances received  Cell can use the same communication chart (Refer figure 1) or will develop a new chart for flow of information and estimated time taken in reverting.

Where the project may contribute to a significant increase in traffic along existing roads, or where road transport is a significant component of a project, recommended measures include:  Minimizing pedestrian interaction with construction vehicles  Collaboration with local communities and responsible authorities to improve signage, visibility and overall safety of roads, particularly along stretches located near schools or other locations where children may be present. Collaborating with P a g e | 84 Detailed Design and Drawing for Controlling Trespassing over Railway Tracks of Suburban Railways at Station areas in Mumbai local communities on education about traffic and pedestrian safety (e.g. school education campaigns)  Coordination with emergency responders to ensure that appropriate first aid is provided in the event of accidents  Using locally sourced materials, whenever possible, to minimize transport distances. Locating associated facilities such as worker camps close to project sites and arranging worker bus transport to minimizing external traffic.  Employing safe traffic control measures, including road signs and flag persons to warn of dangerous conditions. 7.14.4 Rail Traffic Management Ensure safety of rail commuters near stacking yard and construction and fabrication sites Ensure safety while transferring construction material at construction site within rail premises. Obtain permission from DRM. Railway Manager) for power and/or operation blocks. As far as possible, the blocks will be during non-traffic hours 2 - 5 am. 7.14.5 Train / Worker Accidents Railway workers in the vicinity of rail lines are exposed to moving trains. Recommended management strategies include: (i) Training workers in personal track safety procedures; (ii) Blocking train traffic on lines where maintenance is occurring (“green zone working”) or, if blocking the line is not feasible, use of an automatic warning system or, as a last resort, human lookouts; 7.14.6 Electric and Magnetic Fields Railway workers on electric railway systems may have a higher exposure to electric and magnetic fields (EMF) than the public due to working in proximity to electric power lines. Occupational EMF exposure willbe prevented or minimized through the preparation and implementation of an EMF safety program including the following components: (i) Establishment and identification of safety zones to differentiate between work areas with expected elevated EMF levels compared to those acceptable for public exposure, and limiting access to properly trained workers (ii) Implementation of an action plan to address potential or confirmed exposure levels that exceed reference occupational exposure levels developed by international organizations such as the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). P a g e | 85 Detailed Design and Drawing for Controlling Trespassing over Railway Tracks of Suburban Railways at Station areas in Mumbai 7.14.7 Pedestrian Safety Trespassers on rail lines and facilities may incur risks from moving trains, electrical lines and equipment, and hazardous substances, among other issues. Measures to minimize, prevent, or control trespassing include: i. Posting of clear and prominent warning signage at potential points of entry to track areas (e.g. stations and level crossings); ii. Installation of fencing or other barriers at station ends and other locations to prevent access to tracks by unauthorized persons; iii. Local education, especially to young people, regarding the dangers of trespassing; iv. Designing stations to ensure the authorized route is safe, clearly indicated, and easy to use; v. Use of closed-circuit television to monitor rail stations and other areas where trespassing occurs frequently, with a voice alarm system to deter trespassers. 7.15 ACCIDENT AND FATALITY RATES Projects shall try to reduce the number of accidents among project workers (whether directly employed or subcontracted) to a rate of zero, especially accidents that could result in lost work time, different levels of disability, or even fatalities. Facility rates may be benchmarked against the performance of facilities in this sector in developed countries through consultation with published sources (e.g. US Bureau of Labor Statistics and UK Health and Safety Executive).

Many a times there are serious accidents due to trespassing. 8.4.1 Scenario if the work is not taken up: Since there is an increase in number of commuters every day, if facilities are not implemented, there will be increase the rate of trespassing and ultimately in the rate of accidents on railway tracks. The dispersal and movement of commuters will be difficult due to congestion of present facilities and it will continue to pose challenge to physically challenged people or people carrying luggage. (i) Scenario if the work is taken up with greater scope of work - Not studied (ii) What kind of natural disasters this corridor is vulnerable to? - Not relevant at this stage as this is not a Greenfield project. Main facilities already exist. (iii) How is the proposed work disaster resilient? - Not relevant at this stage as this is not a Greenfield project. Main facilities already exist. 8.5 CORRIDOR OF IMPACT Refer Social Impact Plan (SMP) for details. (i) Where will the activity be taken up, what does it (drain/road, canal) pass through: markets, residential areas, green fields- - Within Railway premises (ii) Brief socio-economic profile of the work site and impact area, beneficiary/affected communities: businesses, livelihoods; - Refer Social Impact Plan ( SMP) for details (iii) Who all will benefit, and welcome the work? Who may oppose the proposed work? - Commuters will be benefitted and in turn Central and Western Railway.
