Ensure adequate clearances for OHE structures, inspection pits, cranes, and maintenance platforms.
Resolve interface conflicts between track, building, drainage, and service corridors.

4. Operational & Maintenance Planning

Incorporate maintenance workflow logic into layout:
- Entry/exit sequencing
- Cleaning inspection repair stabling flow
Design efficient rake movement paths minimizing shunting.
Provide emergency evacuation and rescue access provisions.

Prepare depot capacity calculation sheets based on fleet size and maintenance schedule.

5. Compliance & Safety

Ensure layout compliance with:
- Fire safety norms
- Emergency access requirements
- Occupational safety standards
- Minimum track spacing and safe walkways
Provide derailment containment measures.
Ensure adequate drainage and flood protection planning.
