Struggling hard to find information on the Delhi Metro network, its train timings and major tourist attractions in the capital? Don’t worry.
Now, such data will be available at the click of a button at select Metro stations.
Delhi Metro is installing interactive digital pods at 28 Metro stations to provide detailed information to its commuters about the network, stations, train timings and fare structure besides facts about the city.
The digital pods, which are being installed at all major stations, will provide help to people who come to Delhi from other parts of the country.
Sixty interactive pods will be installed at 28 stations on Line 1 (Dilshad Garden-Rithala), Line 2 (Jahangirpuri-HUDA City Centre) and Line 3 (Dwarka Sector 21- Noida City Centre/Anand Vihar).
“The pods will have detailed information about the Delhi Metro network, stations, fare structure as well as information about Delhi and its major tourist attractions,” DMRC spokesperson Anuj Dayal said.
Since the pods will be internally networked, the DMRC can flash instant messages for the public in case of any emergency or inordinate delays.
The pods have already been installed at Rajiv Chowk, which sees a footfall of 5 lakhs every day, Barakhamba Road, Kashmere Gate and Vishwavidyalaya Metro Stations.
