Abstract

The Mexico City Metro underground system has been regarded as the second largest Metro in North America after the New York City Metro. It is believed that in 2006 the system served over one billion passengers, the fifth highest in the world. Given this, a threat to the Metro transport system may either have an impact on other industries that rely on it or to the other modes of transportation in the City. Interdependencies amongst the key components of the Metro system, therefore, must be understood and adequately addressed. The paper addresses the modelling of the interdependencies amongst the Metro lines by applying a 'Systemic Safety Management System' (SSMS) model. The paper gives an account of the ongoing research project.
