As part of the ongoing expansion work for Phase-4 of the Delhi Metro, there will be adjustments to the train services on the Yellow Line, particularly between the Samaypur Badli and Jahangirpuri stations. The construction aims to extend the reach of the Metro and enhance connectivity, including making modifications for future interchange stations.
Service Schedule Changes
Starting Thursday, April 18th, and continuing until further notice, metro services on this segment of the Yellow Line will operate on a single track. This change will affect the train services during the following hours:
- Evenings: From 10:00 PM until the end of passenger service.
- Mornings: From the start of passenger service until 7:00 AM.
Expected Delays
Passengers traveling between Samaypur Badli and Jahangirpuri during these hours should anticipate longer waiting times for trains. The trains will operate at reduced speeds to accommodate the construction activities safely.
Impact on Stations
The stations that will experience changes in train frequencies due to the single-line operation include:
- Samaypur Badli
- Rohini Sector 18-19
- Haiderpur Badli Mor
- Jahangirpuri
Beyond these stations, train services will operate as normal.
Future Enhancements
The ongoing Phase-4 work includes extending the Magenta Line from Janakpuri West to R.K. Ashram Marg, which will pass through Haiderpur Badli Mor Station. Upon completion, Haiderpur Badli Mor is set to become an interchange station, improving connectivity and passenger flow across the network.
Advisory for Commuters
Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) advises passengers to plan additional time for their travel and to consider these temporary adjustments when using the Metro during the specified hours. The construction is a critical step toward enhancing the overall capacity and efficiency of the Delhi Metro network.
