Leading Japanese company Hitachi, in collaboration with Mitsubishi, is in talks with Tamil Nadu government for providing monorail technology for the state’s 300 km project.
Hitachi’s Yoshitaka Hirabaya and Mitsubishi Corporation’s Koichi Hattori said on Tuesday that monorail was feasible in Chennai as it was simple in construction and would cause less traffic congestion.
The company has already supplied technology to Taegu monorail in Korea, Chingqing monorail in China, Palm monorail in Dubai and Sentosa monorail in Singapore.
