Delhi Metro’s Green Line extension till Indraprastha

DELHI (Metro Rail News): People in Haryana and Outer Delhi will soon be able to commute more efficiently. The Green Line of the Delhi Metro, which currently ends at Inderlok station, will be extended to Indraprastha station as part of Phase IV developments, offering direct access to Central, New, Old, West, and East Delhi.

LNJP Hospital, Indira Gandhi Hospital, IG Stadium, Old Delhi landmarks, and localities like Chandni Chowk will be connected by the proposed 12-kilometre Inderlok-Indraprastha corridor. The Green Line currently has interchange stations at Inderlok for the Red Line and Kirti Nagar for the Blue Line.

It will also have interchange facilities at Nabi Karim for the Magenta Line, Delhi Gate for the Violet Line, and Indraprastha for the Blue Line due to the extension.

It will also interchange with the Pink Line because the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is building a halt platform to connect the Green Line’s Punjabi Bagh and Pink Line’s Punjabi Bagh West stations, which will open to the public next year.

Brigadier Hoshiyar Singh (Marg) is connected to Kirti Nagar and InderLok via the 29.64-kilometre Green Line. “In comparison to the others, this corridor has a lower ridership. Residents in Haryana’s areas bordering the national capital and Outer Delhi neighbourhoods Tikri, Savda Ghevra, and Mundka will have seamless access to Dwarka, Raj Nagar Extension, Vaishali, and Noida as a result of the extension. People who live in the city’s rural areas will also have direct access to hospitals, the railway station, and the NCR region,” stated a government official.

Inderlok, Daya Basti, Sarai Rohilla, Ajmal Khan Park, Nabi Karim, LNJP Hospital, Delhi Gate, Indira Gandhi Stadium, and Indraprastha will be ten stops with the 12-kilometre Green Line extension. Six routes were suggested as part of the Phase IV project, three of which were authorised by the national government in 2019, and work has begun. The Delhi government approved the remaining three corridors, and the Centre’s final sanction is likely before the end of the year.

Rithala-Bawana-Narela (22.91 km), Lajpat Nagar-Saket G-Block (8.38 km), and Inderlok-Indraprastha (12.37 km) are the three metro lines approved under Phase IV, with a total length of nearly 43 kilometres. It is projected that the overall cost will be around Rs 12,586 crore.

Bangalore Metro’s TBM Rudra Makes Breakthrough at Dairy Circle

BANGALORE, INDIA (Metro Rail News): Afcons Infrastructure’s TBM S-1259 also made a breakthrough at Dairy Circle Station on Bangalore Metro’s 21.386 km Pink Line, which would connect Nagawara – Kalena Agrahara through 18 stops.

TBM S-1259, dubbed Rudra, made the first of three breakthroughs for the 3.655 km Package RT-01 (Rashtriya Military School Station – Dairy Circle Ramp) of the 73.92 km Bangalore Metro Phase 2 project, and Afcons made the second of eight breakthroughs. Overall, this is the project’s fourth breakthrough out of a total of 26 scheduled for Phase 2.

This Herrenknecht slurry machine was launched on April 23 from Dairy Circle’s South Ramp and went 614 metres to pierce the diaphragm wall of Dairy Circle Station. The station’s box is still being excavated. Therefore the breakthrough was “hidden” and unnoticed by construction personnel.

Similar “secret” TBM breakthroughs have been made by Afcons Infrastructure in Chennai Metro’s Sir Theagaraya College Station (By S-711 and 219-364), TBM S-639 at Howrah Station & Mahakaran Station, and TBM S-616 at Bowbazar Shaft lately.

Rudra will now begin creating rings for the up-line tunnel under Dairy Circle Station’s box to Lakkasandra Station, a distance of 747.338 metres that Afcons aims to finish in 243 days, according to the tunnelling plan. Those rings will be dismantled during the excavation of Dairy Circle Station.

Rudra’s final task is to construct a 714.510-meter tunnel leading to Langford Town Station, which Afcons intends to finish in 157 days. According to BMRCL’s October newsletter, Afcons’ third machine, Vamika (S-1260), has manufactured 187 rings on the down-line (261.80m or 42.7 per cent). If and when the most recent figures are released, I’ll update this area.
