Snag halts Blue line metro services for 90 minutes

Friday, 30 March 2018 | Staff Reporter | New Delhi

Thousands of commuters had to face hardship when Delhi Metro services on the Blue line were hit for nearly 90 minutes on Thursday due to a technical snag in the overhead electrification between Karol Bagh and RK Ashram stations.

The snag was reported in the contact wire of the overhead electrification at 2.05 pm, affecting train services on the 50-km-long line, the DMRC said in a statement. The services were restored at 3.35 pm, it added.

Thousands of commuters had to face crowded trains and delayed schedules during the time the snag remained unresolved.

According to DMRC, train services are managed in three loops on the Blue line, which is the busiest corridor of the metro network in the national Capital.
