Dedicated Freight Corridor is about developing the separate track for the goods to be transported across the country through Railways. For that DFCCIL has been appointed as Special purpose Vehicle by Indian Government for planning & development, mobilization of financial resources and construction, maintenance and operation of the Dedicated Freight Corridors Backed by strong fundamentals and commendable growth in the past three to four years, the resplendent Indian Economy is poised to grow even further at an average of 8 to 10% in the next 3 years. Transport requirement in the country, being primarily a derived demand, is slated to increase with elasticity of 1.25 with GDP growth by 10 to 12% in the medium and long term range. Riding on the waves of economic success, Indian Railways has witnessed a dramatic turn around and unprecedented financial turnover in the last two and a half years. This has been made possible by higher freight volumes without substantial investment in infrastructure, increased axle load, reduction of turn-round time of rolling stock, reduced unit cost of transportation, rationalization of tariffs resulting in improvement in market share and improved operational margins. Over the last 2 to 3 years, the railway freight traffic has grown by 8 to 11%, which is projected to cross 1100 million tonnes by the end of 11th Five Year Plan. This Project is carried under the guidance of Mr. Balaji Ramadurai,PMP, VP, Tata Consultancy Services

9. WHY DFC IS REQUIRED
To cope with increased freight traffic:
• To carry the same on existing network OR
• Creation of a new passenger corridor OR
• To go for separate freight corridor.
VJTI-MTech(Proj.Mgmt)

10. CONTD…
• First option of upgrading not convincing due to
-average freight speed is very low
-Heavy traffic density routes
-Technical constraints
-to overcome these constraints the cost incurred is very high
• Second option not feasible.

13. BENEFITS OF DEDICATED FREIGHT
CORRIDOR
• Contribution to economic development by freight
transportation
• Segregated electrified line for freight, parallel to the
existing railway line, allows the passenger trains to move
faster in the existing lines
• For industry, reduced unit cost of transportation as DFC
provides rail infrastructure to carry higher throughput per
train
• Guaranteed, faster transit at an economic tariff

14. CONTD..
• Accelerate nation-wide economic development as
well as improve the environment
• Less energy consumed as compared to truck mode
and avoided gas emissions
• Increase in employment opportunities of the region
• Improve and expand the market for agricultural
produce, forestry and fisheries of the regions
