[Urbanstudy] 50 Metro stations at high risk: UN study - The Times of India

[Deb Ranjan Sinha]

"In terms of direct risks, more than 50 stations (phases I & II) are located
in areas of high-earthquake hazard, exposing the line to earthquakes of up
to a magnitude of 8 on the Richter scale," says the study, which was
released on June 3 for the Asia-Pacific region. One of the stations was also
built in a high-flood hazard area. In both cases, hazard information was
available on municipal zoning maps, it says.
