A rain water harvesting system has been built into the design, whereby entire length of the viaduct will act as catchment for the rain water harvesting structures created under alternate spans to recharge the ground water level.
JAIPUR: In an offer to reduction its carbon foot shaped impression and to preserve groundwater in the city, the Jaipur Metro Rail Corporation (JMRC) arrangements used water harvesting framework on the 9.8-km course (Mansarovar to Chandpole) utilizing a unique method.
As indicated by JMRC authorities, a one of a kind idea is utilized to renew the groundwater table in ranges on the metro course. JMRC representative said, “Every column has inbuilt downpipes to gather the water from the viaduct and into the underground tanks on the middle.”
The authorities guaranteed that the Jaipur metro venture will give a particular area of one lakh square meters of water gathering which is immense in itself. The normal rate of rainfall is 32 mm for every hour in the city. Reviving ground water in such an immense territory will be an awesome advantage,The first time, In the history of Indian Metro the whole track is elevated by using double store technique for minimum land acquisition.
In Jaipur, energize for groundwater is constrained in view of diminishing porous soil surface coming about because of the development of streets and structures. Because of poor revive and substantial extraction of groundwater, the water table has gone down. We trust that activities like this will help in some little way.
