Chennai Metro to deploy made in India tunnel boring machines for Phase II project
In contrast to the situation 10 years ago when the project was started, the Chennai Metro Rail will deploy 13 made in India tunnel boring machines for Phase IIwww.thehindu.com
“Of the 12 machines in Tamil Nadu, 10 will be manufactured in Chennai and two in Kancheepuram. After the remanufacturing process is complete, the company will have it certified for use from the original manufacturer after which it will be used here,” an official said, reports The Hindu.
Ya'll Nibbiars assembly, there are still only two countries which can make the TBM from scratch that's the Germanu and the Mleecahs that's to the German help. What we do here is reassembly it's what I understand from the above quoted statements.'Made In India' Tunnel Boring Machines To Be Used For Chennai Metro Phase-II Project

After a TBM is used, if possible, it is retrieved from the shaft and "remanufactured" to new specifications for a different project. That remanufacturing is happening in India. The company is German.'Made In India' Tunnel Boring Machines To Be Used For Chennai Metro Phase-II Project

Ya'll Nibbiars Australia is Japanese owned, USA is also Chinese, may be Japanese and German owned operations only other independent is ROK. The turkey also a German collaboration. So yeah Four countries can manufacture all the TBM on it's own. We are still a new entry. The largest are Mleecahs, Germany, Japan and the ROK in that order.Here's a list of 20 TBM mfgrs from all over the world in alphabetical order .

I am sure monthly passes will be a lot less. Plus I see travel commute mostly by high quality buses or carpools to work - not every individual driving to Mumbai. But even 250 rupees toll is high - almost amreeki toll rates. But the bridge was very expensive to build.Yes, I stand corrected. Daily commute people would rather enjoy this - INR 500 for a round trip /day * 25 working days = INR 12,500/- per month. Sounds like fun.
