The Commissioner of Railway Safety (CRS) conducted inspections on the Kolkata Metro Green Line as part of routine clearance procedures ahead of passenger operations. The inspections covered signalling, track alignment and safety systems across the newly constructed section, and included interface checks with the city's urban signalling grid. Officials said the review aimed to verify compliance with statutory safety norms and technical specifications. The exercise represents a significant step towards commissioning the line for public service. Inspectors examined traction power installations, station facilities and emergency response provisions to assess readiness. Testing of rolling stock interfaces with platform equipment and trials of automatic signalling sequences were observed during the visit to ensure synchronisation with existing operations and redundancy checks. Technical teams prepared detailed compliance reports and identified items requiring rectification before final certification. Project managers indicated that corrective work would be prioritised to meet regulatory timelines while minimising disruption to adjoining services. The Kolkata Metro administration coordinated closely with contractors and the CRS team to present inspection documentation and test results and to facilitate rapid resolution of recorded deficiencies. Safety protocols including evacuation planning and passenger information systems formed part of the audit checklist, together with signage and communication audits. The review process also evaluated staff training records and operational procedures to ensure safe commencement of services. Authorities noted that thorough documentation accelerates decision making by regulatory bodies. Pending closure of any technical observations and issuance of a formal clearance, authorities will schedule a date for trial passenger operations. Residents expecting improved connectivity were advised that timelines depend on completion of compliance actions and final certification. City planners continue to integrate the Green Line into the broader urban transit network to improve last mile connectivity. Officials stated that public safety remains the primary criterion for opening new sections.
