Design of a coastal metro system between Tyr and Tripoli

The objective of this project is to design a metro system that connects the coastal cities from Tyr to Tripoli.  The metro system should exploit the lands owned by the ministry (i.e. the rail right of way) to provide an affordable means of mass transport between the cities and minimize reliance on the use of cars.

The design should:

• Specify the number of stations and locations on the map and the lines connecting the different locations making up the network. 
• Design the layout of a standard station.

Include an estimate of the demand and the frequency of service between cities.
