The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) on Friday urged the public to choose public transport to reduce congestion and air pollution in the city.
“As the festive season approaches around this time of the year, Delhi Metro urges the public to embrace public transport to alleviate road congestion as well as to minimize air pollution. With increased travel during festivals, using public transport can significantly contribute to a cleaner environment besides being cost effective, convenient and stress free,” said Anuj Dayal, Principal Executive Director, Corporate Communications, DMRC.

“This festive/winter season, let’s come together to support a cleaner, greener and more enjoyable environment for all. Delhi Metro invites the public to plan their journeys considering it as a preferred public transport option,” Dayal said.
He also informed that in view of the festival season and likely implementation of various stages of Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP) owing to pollution level in the city, the Delhi Metro will be running additional train trips ensuring that frequency of metro trains are increased on special occasions and during the GRAP Stage-II and III implementation by the authorities, to accommodate the expected higher demand.
“Whenever GRAP Stage-II stage comes into force, DMRC will run 40 additional metro trips on weekdays across all the Lines. Furthermore, when GRAP Stage III or higher is enforced, 20 extra trips will be added, resulting into a total of 60 additional trips on weekdays. This initiative will enable the public to travel long distances without exposure to air pollution,” Dayal added.
