provisions for gradual, efficient and incremental
development of the different transit systems including the
proposed extension of the Metro Line in the North-South

rickshaws etc. are also under consideration since the same

Kolkata at foresuit though their routes and operational
arrangement might be concentrated at a particular
location.

corridor for good movements, truck terminals inclusive of
wholesale trading centers with easy availabilities of
