Delhi Metro is going to construct extra long foot over bridges (FOB) and ramps in six of its seven interchange stations on the Mukundpur - Shiv Vihar corridor in order to provide seamless connectivity through the paid area for the convenience of the commuters,The interchange stations on this 56 km long corridor, which will be the longest in the Delhi Metro network, will be - Azadpur, Netaji Subhas Place, Rajouri Garden, Mayur Vihar 1, Karkarduma, Anand Vihar and Welcome. At Anand Vihar, the new station will be adjacent to the operational one and in the remaining stations, FOBs and ramps will be constructed.The length of the FOBs and ramps will range from approximately 70 metres to 200 metres. Due to constraints such as the inadequate availability of land near the existing stations and the direction of the alignment, it was very difficult to connect the new stations with the already operational ones.However, keeping in mind the convenience of the commuters, the DMRC engineers have designed these FOBs and ramps which will connect the new and the old stations. Lifts and escalators will also be provided in these FOBs and ramps wherever required and the connectivity will be from concourse to concourse.The following are the details of the new FOBs and Subways that will provide paid area connectivity in the interchange stations of the Mukundpur - Shiv Vihar corridor: |
