What is the estimated cost of the Intelligent Traffic Management System approved for Delhi?

  1. A.Rs 789.52 crore
  2. B.Rs 1,289.52 crore
  3. C.Rs 1,789.52 crore
  4. D.Rs 2,789.52 crore

Correct answer

C. Rs 1,789.52 crore

Explanation

The correct answer is Rs 1,789.52 crore, the estimated cost inclusive of taxes for the project the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs cleared for implementation by Delhi Police. Options A, B and D are wrong because each alters the figure while keeping its shape, a common way of setting a distractor in an examination. The money buys a system that covers 42 identified traffic corridors, with 1,092 Adaptive Traffic Control System installations and 1,029 enforcement locations. Implementation runs in three phases over 24 months and is followed by five years of operation and maintenance, each phase beginning only after the earlier one has been judged against prescribed testing, commissioning, acceptance and performance parameters. Delhi Police will carry out the work through a Master System Integrator selected by competitive bidding.
