Stabilization of Railway Tracks Using Geosynthetics—A Review
The Railway forms one of the predominant and well connected transportation networks in India, serving all economic classes of people. Railway fosters the proliferation of our Country’s economy by transporting bulk commodities related to industrial, agricultural and energy sectors. For the efficient and safe movement of trains on railway tracks, the latter’s strength and stability are very important. Indian government has initiated the roll-out of projects to connect routes with a high traffic density using super-fast trains. For the safe operation of such super-fast trains, the tracks must be strong, stable and durable. Hence, this paper presents a glimpse of the seminal geosynthetics based research attempts related to stabilization and drainage of railway tracks. The paper can be used as a quick reference by research scholars, engineers and students to comprehend geosynthetic techniques for stabilizing both existing old tracks and newly constructed tracks.
