Vibration level: East-West corridor including 7 Archaeological sMonuments at underground
section (i.e Shahpur Kazi Md Chisti Mosque, Delhi Darwaja, Qutubiddin Shah Mosque,
Muhafiz Khan Mosque, Rani Rupamati Mosque, Kalupur Darwaja and Brick Minar) and 2
locations (i.e Doordarshan Tower & Vastral) at structures falling near to the proposed Metro
corridor. 3 locations were selected at North-South corridor (i.e, The Silver Arc apartment near
Ellis Bridge, Navrangpura near Ashram Road & Akhbar Nagar). The study has been conducted
for 24 hours vibration level monitoring at each location. The field measured Vertical Vibration
level is in the range of 0.2 to 2.0 mm/s and the maximum 2.0 mm/s vibration level were
observed at Kalupur Darwaza and Navrangpura. The peak values at these locations are
because of passing of heavy vehicles on nearby road.
Soil erosion: minor impact on soil erosion due to runoff from unprotected excavated areas
may result in soil erosion, especially when erodibility of soil is high. Problems could arise from
dumping of construction soils (concrete, bricks), waste materials (from contractor’s camp)
etc. causing surface and ground water pollution.
Traffic diversion: During construction period, partial traffic diversions on road will be
required, as most of the construction is to be carried out on the middle of the road.
Muck disposal: The construction of tunneling activity will generate about 16,03,000 m3 of
muck. The muck will be transported up to nearest proposed option. Being the good road
condition in Ahmedabad, the dust generation due to transportation of muck will be
insignificant.

Water Supply, Sanitation and Solid Waste Management: Requirements of drinking water supply at
station are about 6 KL/day. Raw water requirement for station is about 240-250 KL/Day. The
water requirement at Depot will be 123 KLD. This shall be provided from municipal/ground
water source. Solid waste generated at station is about 38.4 cum/day. Waste generated
during and after construction will be disposed in accordance with relevant National and State
laws and Regulations.

EIA CATEGORIZATION SYSTEM IN JICA

Category A Projects are likely to have significant adverse impacts
on the environment and society. It includes projects in sensitive
sectors or with sensitive characteristics and projects located in or
near sensitive areas.
Category B Projects are ones with potential adverse impacts on the
environment and society less adverse than those of Category A
projects.
Category C Projects have minimal or little adverse impacts on the
environment and society.
