The much-awaited Hi-Tec City metro rail connectivity project has been inaugurated with Governor E S L Narasimhan flagging off services from the Ameerpet Interchange station at 9.30 am amidst top metro rail, municipal and police officials on 20 March (Wednesday).
General public’s commercial operations began from 4 pm onwards and initially at a frequency of 9-12 minutes from Ameerpet to Hi-Tec City. The last train will be at 10.30 pm which will depart from Hi-Tec City, reports The Hindu.
Furthermore, another stretch of 1.5 km up to terminal Raidurg station is also slated to be completed later in 2019 so that Corridor III - Nagole to Hi-Tec City/Raidurg of 28 km is completed in all respects.
Corridor Two - Jubilee Bus Station to MGBS which is of 9.5 km length is expected to be completed by November, while the Old City route of about 5 km from MGBS to Falaknuma remains to be constructed.
It is believed that the number of passengers commuting daily will cross the three lakh mark once the line stabilises.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
