New Delhi: Services on the Pink Delhi Metro line will be limited from the night of August 16 to September 10 for the integration of the signaling system between two stations, officials said on Saturdays.
In the main push for Metro Delhi, a small segment of the pink line in Trilokpuri, which has proven to be an obstacle for the DMR authority for a long time, inaugurated on August 6, making it the longest network operational corridor.
With this, the 59km-long vihar park-shiv corridor or pink line, which stretches 38 stations, has been fully linked for the first time.
The DMRC on the statement on Saturday said, to integrate the signaling system between the trilokpuri-sanjay lake which had just opened and the Vihar Pocket-1 Mayur part of the pink line, the service must be limited from August 16 to September 10.
The first train service from both ends (Majlis Park and Shiv Vihar) will begin at 6:30 a.m.
(instead of 6 am), he said.
Likewise, the last train service from both ends will begin at 10 nights instead of 11 nights.
“On Sunday, the services of the two ends will continue to start at 8 am (as well as this practice) but the last train service from both ends will start at 10pm (not 11 o’clock),” said the statement.
The first and last train service with a normal schedule from 6am to 11 a night on a pink line will be continued from September 11, DMRC said.
The completion of the pink line has connected important city landmarks, such as Anand Vihar Train Station, Anand Vihar ISTBT, Nizamuddin Railway Station, Market in South Extension, Ina and Lajpat Nagar.
