Airport Metro to shut down services for unspecified period


Delhi Metro’s Airport Express line that caters to hundreds of passengers on a daily basis will close down from Sunday for an unspecified period.

“The Delhi Metro has received a communication from Reliance, the concessionaire, on Friday evening that they intend to stop services from Sunday,” said a DMRC spokesperson. “We would be asking them to intimate the date by which they would be able to resume services after carrying out the rectifications required on the line,” said the spokesperson.

The Airport Express line is the country’s first public-private-partnership Metro project that provides connectivity from the heart of the city, Connaught Place, with Terminal-3 of the Indira Gandhi International Airport in less than 20 minutes.
