DMRC to build subway at Pankha Road in Delhi

To make it easier for passengers to reach the Dabri Mor Metro station, Delhi, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has decided to construct a subway across the busy Pankha Road in west Delhi, say media reports.

The Metro station lies on the upcoming Janakpuri West-Botanical Garden corridor in Delhi.

The subway will connect Pankha Road in west Delhi to neighbouring areas like Sitapuri, Dabri Mor police station and Sagarpur. It will also form the entrance to the Dabri Mor Metro station on the upcoming Janakpuri (west)-Botanical Garden alignment in phase III. The construction of the subway, which will be built using box pushing technology, will not disrupt traffic.

The subway will be an architectural landmark as it will be built without hampering the construction of the flyover which will be right above it at a height of 9.77m from road level, said Delhi Metro spokesman. It will also pass below the existing drain on Pankha Road, he added. The Metro tunnel will come up below the subway at a depth of 17.05m from road level.

The subway will come up near the Dabri Mor circle on the left side of Pankha Road moving towards Delhi Cantonment, enabling entry to the proposed Dabri Mor Metro station from both sides of Pankha Road. The box pushing technology is an innovative method in which a tunnel is made by casting RCC boxes in segments and then pushing them through below the road.
