Delhi: Long wait for the longest metro line

New Delhi: After waiting two and a half years, ‘Links’ from the Pink Line Delhi Metro (Majlis Park-Shiv Vihar) finally bridged in Trilokpuri on Friday, making it the longest operational corridor of the train network.
Section 290 meters between Mayor Vihar Pocket 1 and Trilokpuri-Sanjay Lake was inaugurated on Friday by UNION Housing and Urban Minister Hardeep Singh Puri and Chairman of the Minister of Arvind Kejriwal, who marked the first train through video conferencing.
Passenger service starts at 3pm with a train that crosses a bow of almost 59-km-long from the northwestern and northeastern capital while connecting all other Delhi Metro corridors at 11 exchanges.
Puri said that even though the part that was inaugurated may be a minimum, from the perspective of increasing connectivity, it would play a very important role because it allows a smooth and end trip to the end.
Kejriwal said, “I remember how we faced many problems during development in this area.” He added that Metro Delhi’s Metro Managing Director, Mangu Singh had met him many times to discuss the problems faced in rehabilitating people whose land was obtained.
“Everyone works together and coordinated to overcome this obstacle and finally we overcome the difficulty and resolve the problem to reach today when we throw a stretch,” he said.
Durga Shanker Mishra, Housing and Secretary Urban, revealed that the DMRC network will complete 458km in the next four years.
With 96 km from the network against ‘Driverless’ on Friday, Metro Delhi also has the longest stretch of drivers in the world, he said.
A total of 43 train trainers will be deployed in the corridor.
Training services from Park Majlis to Sarai Kale Khan Nizamuddin and Shiv Vihar to the IP extension section will be available at a frequency of 5 minutes and 12 seconds, said Anuj Dayal, executive director (corporate communication), DMRC.
However, only every alternative train will cross the entire corridor.
This means that a commuter can ride the train leaving Majlis Park to reach Maujpur and then take the Shuttle Train to Shiv Vihar, while the next train will only get to Sarai Kale Khan Nizamuddin and back.
Similarly, the NE train from the end of the corridor will return from the IP extension, while the next will run to Majlis Park.
The train at each corridor station, therefore, will be available every 5 minutes and 12 seconds at the top hours, but they ride the train from any station between Sarai Kale Khan Nizamuddin and IP extensions must wait at least 10 minutes and 24 years.
seconds to take the train.
Also, the train will be run by limiting the temporary speed of 25 kmps at 1.5 km between Mayor Vihar Pocket 1 and Lake Trilokpuri-Sanjay because of the unavailability of automatic signaling systems on this stretch, which is still in commotion.
“The integration of this special stretch signaling system is in the operational line that has become a challenging task and we hope to assign the system in the next two months, after that the train will move at regular speed on this stretch too,” Dayal said.
The next corridor will be expanded from the Majlis Park to Maujpur as part of the DMRC Phase IV project, making it not only the longest Metro corridor in India in about 70 km, but also the only ‘ring corridor’ of each metro rail in this country.
