Sunday morning train services on the Blue Line will be temporarily suspended for maintenance

Officials said on Friday that a portion of the Blue Line between Rajiv Chowk and Karol Bagh stations would undergo routine repair on Sunday morning, causing a slight disruption to train services.

The DMRC stated in a statement that train services from Karol Bagh to Rajiv Chowk would not be accessible till 6 am from the regular start time of revenue services in this segment.

Dwarka Sector 21 and Electronic City in Noida are connected by the Blue Line.

“Train services on the line will be temporarily regulated on early Sunday morning in order to undertake the scheduled maintenance work between Karol Bagh and Rajiv Chowk section of Blue Line (Dwarka Sec-21 to Noida Electronic City/Vaishali) on the intervening night of 4 and 5 November 2023,” the statement said.

The two metro stations in this portion, Jhandewalan and Rama Krishna Ashram Marg, would thus be closed till six in the morning. According to the announcement, services on this segment of stations will start at six in the morning.

“Services on either side of this maintenance section of Blue Line i.e., from Dwarka Sec-21 to Karol Bagh and Rajiv Chowk to Noida City Centre/Vaishali, will continue to remain available as per normal time table during this very brief period,” it said.

Regular announcements will be made at the stops and inside the trains to advise passengers of the same, and more workers will be sent out to assist the commuters.

According to the regular Sunday schedule, train services from Noida City Center to the Noida Electronic City sector will begin at 8 am, according to authorities.
