To create a New Identity of New India, Indian Railways will standardise the signages at railway stations across the country. The national transport is working round-the-clock to enhance the passenger experience at the station premises. India has the largest number of railway stations than any other nation.
On Monday, Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw released a booklet containing details of the project at Rail Bhavan, New Delhi, in presence of senior officials. The railways will adopt modern, and standard signages that will be divyangjan (differently-abled) friendly. “It was felt to issue standard guidelines on Signages at Stations that will be consistent and adequate. Today, I am delighted to release the booklet on Standard Signages at Stations on Indian Railways,” Vaishnaw said.
The signages have been made keeping in mind the requirements of the commuters. This includes elderly, women, children, divyangjan, etc. The signages will be standardised on the basis of simple language, colour, font, and pictograms. In addition, the concept of grouping of signages has also been introduced.
