Shri Daljeet Singh, Advisor (Special Works), Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), said that the Patna metro is committed to constructing sites within defined safety parameters. During his inspection of various Patna Metro Rail Project construction sites, he inspected the ongoing civil, electrical and track-related works at places like Malahi Pakdi, Khemnichak, Bhootnath Road, ISBT Depot, etc.
Besides assessing the progress and development work of the Patna Metro Rail Project, Shri Singh’s inspection centred on adhering to his directives aimed at ensuring public safety and facilitating pedestrian and vehicular movement by clearing encroachments along construction sites and parallel routes. Directives were also issued to remove barriers at completed construction sites, reducing congestion and ensuring smoother traffic flow. He stressed that besides the quality of work, DMRC is committed to minimal inconvenience for citizens near Patna metro construction areas. Regular inspections aim to accelerate construction and ensure safety and orderly progress in the construction processes.
Additionally, he inspected the preliminary mobilization work of the Heritage Art tunnel from Bihar Museum to Patna Museum. On Wednesday, Singh inspected construction sites at Gandhi Maidan, PMCH, Akashvani, Saguna More, Danapur, Rukanpura, and Patliputra metro stations. Besides expediting construction, he directed DMRC officials to ensure compliance with contractors regarding proper zebra crossings for pedestrians in areas where road configurations change due to construction.
Shri Daljeet Singh further directed officials to ensure the placement of appropriate signage lighting arrangements for people and vehicles, remove unnecessary hindrances, and subsequently recommence work at all Patna Metro Rail Project sites.
