Delhi Metro services to be regulated amid weekend curfew
Trains on Yellow Line at frequency of 15 minutes
New Delhi, Jan. 14 (Delhi Crown): Amid the weekend curfew (Saturday, Sunday) Metro trains on Yellow Line (HUDA City Centre – Samaypur Badli) and Blue Line (Dwarka Sec-21 – NOIDA Electronic City/Vaishali) will be available at a frequency of 15 minutes.
And, on all other lines the Metro trains will be available at a frequency of 20 minutes during the weekend curfew.
For rest of the weekdays, i.e. from Monday to Friday, Metro services will continue to remain available as usual as per the extant guidelines, said Delhi Metro PRO Anuj Dayal on Friday.
It is noteworthy to mention that as per the guidelines though 100% sitting is allowed in metro trains, no standing is allowed. Therefore, entry to the trains and stations shall continue to remain highly restrictive as only limited number of passengers (50 only) per coach are allowed.
It is advisable that travel only if absolutely essential, also keep extra time during commuting by Metro as entry shall still continue to be regulated to ensure compliance with the Guidelines which may result in queues/ waiting outside stations.
