GOVERNMENT PLANS FOR KATHMANDU METRO RAILWAY



Korean consulting firm Chungsuk Engineering Company to prepare a Detail Project Report (DPR) for the construction of Bardibas-Birgunj section of Mechi-Mahakali Electrical Railway system and negotiations with the same firm are underway for the feasibility study of the proposed metro train service in the Kathmandu valley.
The committee is engaged in final negotiations with the same Korean firm (Chungsuk Engineering Company) to finalize the contract agreement after evaluating its technical and financial proposals for the feasibility study of metro railway - a Mass Rapid Transit (underground and elevated railway) system for the capital.
The government pushed for a Mass Rapid Transit system in the valley about two years ago in a bid to manage the worsening traffic conditions in the capital due to unchecked rise in the number of vehicles and poor transport infrastructure. An estimated Rs 80 million is needed to complete the feasibility of the Metro railway line. 

Chungsuk Engineering Company of Korea, RITES Limited (India), Systra FA of France and TEAM Consulting Engineering and Management of Thailand were short-listed and asked to submit their financial and technical proposals for the study.
The proposed railway network is expected to cover almost all major bus stops and connect the city with the outskirts, making commuter movement easier and faster, and laying down of 75 km of railway track including 27 km along the Ring Road.

Dense fog prompts flight cancellations

At least four international flights were diverted and all Kathmandu-bound international carriers were told to circle the sky for more than 45 minutes on Sunday morning after dense fog prevented planes from landing at the Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA).

The weather conditions also forced cancellation of over 100 domestic flights to Lukla, Janakpur, Bharatpur and Pokhara and other remote sectors. Normally, over 170 flights are operated every day in the domestic sector. 

No flights landed between 9:15 am to 12:00 noon while the weather did not totally affect the departures, a TIA source said. 

International carriers—Oman Air, Gulf Air, Spice Jet and China Eastern—were diverted due to the inclement weather. Other carriers—Bahrain Air, Qatar Airways, Jet Airways, Air India, Thai Airways, Fly Dubai—spent more than 45 minutes over the Kathmandu skies before they were allowed to land, Kishore Kumar Khatri, an officer at the Air Traffic Control (ATC) at the TIA, said.

According to him, the diverted planes landed late in the afternoon.

UCPN (Maoist) Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal, who was on a Thai Airways plane that was waiting to land at 12:40 pm, was compelled to cancel his party’s Central Committee meeting scheduled at 1:00 pm on Sunday. The aircraft landed at 1:40 pm. 

“There was massive congestion after the fog, as there were several flights waiting to land,” Khatri said. “Many of them must have spent more than an hour circling the TIA before they could land,” according to the TIA. 

The weather, however, did not affect all departing flights. The TIA reported a 1,600-metre ground visibility early in the morning while it improved to 4,000 metres before noon.

For big aircraft, the normal approach visibility on the ground is 3,200 metres while for smaller planes it is 1,600 metres. Although the TIA had ground visibility of over 3,200 metres before noon, TIA sources said the carriers may have been denied descent due to poor vertical visibility.

The most hit was Pokhara Airport. According to Pokhara Airport Chief Pratap Babu Tiwari, only a single flight of Tara Air was operated on Sunday.

“The airport had 2,500 metre visibility during the day and 3,000 metres in the evening,” Tiwari said. Flights are operated when the visibility is 5,000 metre in Pokhara. However, carriers can take off and land at 2,500-metre visibility by applying special visual flights rules. “However, flights normally do not apply the special visual flights rules due to safety concerns.” The tourist hotspot witnesses over 38 flight movements a day.

On Sunday, Yeti Airlines cancelled 10 flights to Pokhara and one to Tumlingtar. Tara Air, the subsidiary of Yeti Airlines, cancelled 15 flights to Lukla, five to Jomsom and one each to Lamidanda and Faflu.

Similarly, Buddha Air suspended six flights and Guna Air cancelled five flights to Pokhara. Agni Air reported five cancellations to Pokhara and two flights to Lukla.

Nepal Airlines Corporation seeks 8 aircraft in grant from China


The government has requested China to provide eight small and medium-sized aircraft for Nepal Airlines Corporation (NAC). The Ministry of Finance (MoF) has written to the Chinese Embassy asking for eight planes from the northern neighbour as a grant. According to the MoF, the proposal was made as per the request of the Ministry of Tourism and Civil Aviation (MoTCA).
According to Finance Secretary Krishna Hari Banskota, the government has requested China to provide all eight aircraft as a grant if possible. “If it is not possible as a grant, we have also requested China to provide a soft loan,” said Banskota.
In the first week of August, NAC had requested its line ministry, the MoTCA, to arrange new aircraft from China as a gift in a bid to bolster its domestic service.
NAC has sought five small (17-19 seater) and three medium-sized (50-70 seater) aircraft from China. The corporation plans to use the medium-sized aircraft for cross-border flights and the small ones on domestic routes.
The Canadian International Development Agency had donated seven Twin Otters to NAC from 1972 to 1979. Among them, only three are in the operation. According to NAC, two Twin Otters can be put back in service after maintenance. With only three Twin Otters in hand, the NAC is struggling even to survive in the domestic market. With private airlines dominating domestic aerospace, the NAC’s market share in the first half of 2011 has declined by 3.5 percent. The NAC currently has just over three percent market share in domestic airline market.
Unlike private companies, NAC is more concentrated on remote areas where it has to offer services at subsidized rates. Hence, its domestic service is currently running at a loss. It has been incurring Rs 50 million in losses annually from each aircraft serving the remote sector. The corporation, to boost its revenue, has recently signed an agreement for charter services with private airlines.
NAC says if it gets more aircraft, it will be able to compete with private airlines and expand its services to more profitable sectors. Currently, it has no single flight on trunk routes where profitability is higher. (Source:ekantipur)
