Providing clarification on the ongoing repair work at Noida City Centre Metro station, Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) on Thursday said that the platform has not developed cracks.
“The reported cracks are not actually cracks but these are signs of epoxy used in repairing work done in the year 2005. The repairs were done by DMRC during erection of span in the year 2005 before opening of the line for public and these repairs are standing well since then,” said the statement issued in public interest by Mangu Singh, Managing Director, DMRC.
A Delhi Metro spokesperson said that it is the regular practice of the Corporation to inspect the station structures and the performance of structures periodically. “In fact, piers 25 to 30 and 70 at the Noida City Centre Metro station have been inspected again and have been found in good condition. The public is assured that these piers are safe,” he added.
