L&T Metro Rail (Hyderabad) has announced that Chief Electrical Inspector (CEIG), Government of India, for HMR, D.V.S. Raju, conducted the statutory inspection of the Overhead Electric Traction System (OETS) between Hi-Tec City and Raidurg stations on Friday.
“Energisation of OETS in this section will facilitate testing of reversal operation (upline to the downline and vice versa) beyond Hi-Tec City station. Further, completion of these trails beyond Hi-Tec City station is crucial to improve the frequency of trains between Ameerpet and Hi-Tec City and ease the peak hour rush in this section,” said Mr. Raju.
L&T MRH MD and CEO K.V.B. Reddy said, “It is an important milestone for Corridor 3.” He thanked the CEIG for inspecting the OETS.
