In mass transportation, LRTS stands for Light Rail Transit System Linear Rail Transportation System Light Rail Transportation system Linear Rail Transit System LRTS stands for Light Rail Transit System, a form of urban rail transit using lighter, lower-capacity vehicles than traditional heavy metro rail. It is suitable for medium-density corridors where demand does not justify heavy metro. LRT is cost-effective, requires less infrastructure, and can operate on streets or elevated tracks. Globally, cities like Toronto, Portland, and Kuala Lumpur use LRT successfully. In India, projects have been proposed in cities like Pune and Kochi as intermediate transit solutions. Indore Slum Networking Programme has been planned by Himanshu Parikh B.V Doshi Dulal Mukherjee Anil Laul The Indore Slum Networking Programme (SNP), initiated in the 1990s, was designed by civil engineer Himanshu Parikh. It aimed to integrate slums into the city’s infrastructure network by providing sanitation, water supply, drainage, roads, and housing improvements. Instead of eviction, SNP focused on in-situ upgrading, community participation, and cost- sharing between stakeholders (government, NGOs, and residents).
