I. Problem Definition
According to the critics one of the slowest-moving public work projects ever
conceived and implemented was the Metro subway in Calcutta. It was 23
years in the making and has a final estimated cost of almost $5 billion. The
project manager is finding out the root cause on why it had taken so long and
the cost is too excessive.
IV. Recommendation
The students recommend starting the project at one of the terminal points
to be able to avoid traffic. Since the root cause is the road itself because it
is congested, provide alternative routes if possible. Provide sufficient
funds for the raw material and over all construction of the Metro subway
and also for the salary of the workers for them to be able to work
efficiently. Considering the circumstances, the project manager should
consider these factors since this will benefit both the workers and the
people of Calcutta. By doing so it will lessen the congestion of roads in the
long run once the subway is built and implemented.
V. Epilogue
In building a public transportation one must consider not only the
project itself but the surrounding and demographic of the project. It is
important to consider the number of people, traffic conditions, and the
following circumstance that would affect in building a public transport. This
should be an important factor before executing a project.
