Delhi Metro Phase 4 to Feature Platform Screen Doors

The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is set to install platform screen doors (PSDs) across all corridors of the upcoming Phase 4 expansion. This move aims to improve safety and crowd management on the new metro lines.

Key Insights:

Platform Screen Doors (PSDs): PSDs will be installed at all stations in Delhi Metro Phase 4, enhancing safety by preventing accidental falls onto the tracks and controlling crowd flow on platforms.

Implementation: The installation will cover all new corridors of Phase 4, including the major lines connecting key areas of Delhi. This upgrade reflects a commitment to modernizing infrastructure for better passenger experience.

Safety Benefits: PSDs are designed to increase safety by creating a barrier between the platform and tracks, reducing the risk of accidents and improving overall station security.

Crowd Management: The doors will help manage large passenger volumes by organizing queues and controlling the flow of people boarding and alighting from trains, thus minimizing congestion.

Operational Efficiency: The introduction of PSDs is expected to streamline operations and enhance the efficiency of train services by ensuring better synchronization between train arrivals and passenger movements.

Future Expansion: The use of PSDs aligns with global best practices in metro systems and sets a precedent for future expansions of the Delhi Metro network.

Government Initiative: The initiative is part of a broader effort to modernize public transportation infrastructure in Delhi, reflecting the government's focus on improving commuter safety and convenience.

Passenger Experience: The enhanced safety and crowd management measures will significantly benefit daily commuters, contributing to a more comfortable and secure travel experience.

The inclusion of platform screen doors in Delhi Metro Phase 4 is a significant upgrade, promising improved safety and efficiency for the city's expanding metro system.
