NEW DELHI: The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is going to take over the operations and maintenance of the Rapid Metro Link, developed by Rapid Metro Rail Gurgaon Limited (RMGL) and Rapid Metro Rail Gurgaon South Limited (RMGSL) from Tuesday night.
The services of the 11.6 km long corridor will continue to operate as per the normal time table as earlier.
The DMRC is committed to provide the best possible services to the commuters of Rapid Metro line. The DMRC management has already deployed adequate staff to maintain station Operations, Train Operations, Signalling and Telecom, Electrical, Traction, Safety and Security etc. so that the passenger services may be maintained in a smooth and trouble-free manner. "With the takeover of operations of Rapid Metro, the total operational Metro network Delhi and NCR has now become 389 KM with 285 stations which includes the Noida-Greater Noida corridor," said DMRC. The Gurgaon Metro was India's first fully privately-developed metro project and was funded by IL&FS which is now facing bankruptcy proceedings in the NCLAT. RMGL and RMGSL were two special purpose vehicles (SPVs) floated by IL&FS for the development and operation of the public transport in Gurugram.
