Less Noisy Railway Tracks

Tata Steel plans to bring to India a unique railway track laying technology called ‘SilentTrack' which will reduce noise in the vicinity of tracks by up to 50 per cent. 

The steel major's European arm has successfully developed and laid ‘SilentTrack' in the UK. It has installed the tracks at Blackfriars station in London. Noise and vibration from moving trains cause lot of discomfort not only to the passengers but also to the people residing in proximity to the stations.
