Mumbai suburban rail is one of the busiest rapid transit systems in the world — operating more than 2000 train services and carrying more than 7 million passengers daily. Rail map plays a critical role in providing the travel related information to help commuters navigate and guide them towards informed decision making prior to the journey. Need was for a well designed Rail Map. So Me and Jaikishan took up the challenge.
Highlights of the Map
1.Our map introduces a quick navigation system, which lets the user locate his stations within seconds using the box grid. We have introduced grid system in a different way. Its slightly modified in comparison to the traditional grid which has alpha-numeric coordinates. This consideration was from our study of most Indians who are not accustomed to criss-cross alpha numeric grid, excluding people who have travelled abroad where the criss-cross alpha numeric grid is very common.
2. We have included shuttle express way which runs from Vasai to Roha.
3. Clear distinction between Fast and Slow local stops which few maps don't provide.
4. Pleasant and appealing visual appearance where beauty is functional.
5. This map is designed to accommodate the colour blind population.
