Abstract
Transportation Engineering is the growing need of developing country as the number of private vehicles are increasing in the city day by day which results in heavy congestion and delay on the road of the cities. Transportation planners always look for new strategies which will result in reduction in congestion and pollution. Introduction of metro rail in Nagpur city will result in passenger ridership shift from road based transport to metro rail. In order to estimate the fuel consumption, the number of vehicles of proposed area after the introduction of Nagpur metro will be estimated by Multinomial Logit Model. This paper includes analysis of effect of Nagpur metro rail on use of other road based transport modes especially private modes such as two wheeler and four wheeler and analyze the comparison of fuel consumption and emission saved after introduction of metro rail in Nagpur city.
