Metro timings of last, first Yellow Line trains on Sunday, Monday to change for work: DMRC

There will be some changes in the last and first train timings on Sunday and Monday respectively in view of the ongoing work on a 490-metre section of Janakpuri West to R K Ashram corridor of Phase-IV of Delhi Metro’s Yellow Line, officials said on Saturday.

The alignment in the stretch, which crosses over Haiderpur Badli Mor Metro station, is adjacent to the existing operational Yellow Line and is critical as the corridor reaches a height of about 28.36 metre, the highest rail level ever of the Delhi Metro in the entire network, they said.

DMRC’s principal executive director corporate communications, Anuj Dayal, said on Sunday, the last train will depart at 10:45 pm instead of 11 pm from Samaypur Badli to Millennium City Centre Gurugram and at 9:30 pm instead of 11 pm from Millennium City Centre Gurugram to Samaypur Badli. On Monday, the first train service will start at 7 am instead of 6 am from Samaypur Badli to Millennium City Centre Gurugram. There will be no train services available between the small section of Samaypur Badli and Jahangirpuri after 11 pm on Sunday and before 7 am on Monday, he said.

However, normal train services will continue to remain available on remaining major section of Yellow Line from Jahangirpuri to Millennium City Centre Gurugram during this period, Dayal said. To avoid any inconvenience to the passengers during these late night and early morning hours on non-working days of Sunday and Monday, announcements will also be made at the stations and inside the trains on Yellow Line about the destination of trains and respective platforms for change over during this period, he said.
