MPMRCL places girder over railway tracks for Indore Metro

Regarding the timing, the operation, which took place early on a Saturday morning between piers P11-P12 near the ISBT Metro Station, represented a significant milestone for the Phase 1 project. This particular line, spanning 33.53 km and connecting key areas such as Palasia and the Airport, plays a crucial role in enhancing Indore's connectivity.

The efficient deployment over Western Railways' tracks commenced with launching works over two tracks at 12:15 am and concluded around 2 am, all within the allocated railway block. The precision demonstrated by DBL in the execution underscores the company's commitment to delivering infrastructure projects promptly and efficiently.

In terms of the contract, Dilip Buildcon secured the first contract for the Indore Metro in October 2018, amounting to Rs 2.28 billion. Their responsibility was to construct a 5.29 km viaduct between the ISBT/MR10 Flyover and Mumtaj Bag Colony within 27 months. However, despite 65 months having passed, the project remains unfinished.

The Indore Metro, a Mass Rapid Transit System initiated by MPMRCL, is currently in Phase 01 of development with an estimated cost of Rs 75 billion. The metro trains are designed to operate at a speed of 80 km/hr across the 31.5 Km line in Indore, covering 29 stations.

For those interested in exploring the potential of the city's Metro, InnoMetro, the flagship Expo and Conference, provides an opportunity to actively participate in shaping its future towards a more sustainable tomorrow. Stay informed and join the effort to take a step towards a brighter future.
