  • And its two diagonals (Delhi-Chennai and Mumbai-Howrah), adding up to a total route length of 10,122 km comprising 16% of the route carried more than 52% of the passenger traffic and 58% of revenue earning freight traffic of IR.
  • The existing trunk routes of Howrah-Delhi on the Eastern Corridor and Mumbai-Delhi on the Western Corridor were highly saturated, line capacity utilization varying between 115% to 150%.
  • Railways lost the share in freight traffic from 83% in 1950-51 to 35% in 2011-12.
  • The growth of the Indian economy has created demand for additional capacity of rail freight transportation, and this is likely to grow further in the future.
  • This burgeoning demand led to the conception of the dedicated freight corridors along the Eastern and Western Routes.
  • Minister for Railways, made this historic announcement on the floor of the House in the Parliament while presenting the Railway Budget for 2005-06.
  • This led to the establishment of “Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation of India Limited (DFCC)”, to undertake planning & development, mobilisation of financial resources and construction, maintenance and operation of the dedicated freight corridors.
  • DFCC was incorporated as a company under the Companies Act 1956 on 30th October 2006.
