Hyderabad Metro Rail services recorded a new high in patronage by carrying 20 million passengers. LTMRHL CEO and Managing Director Mr. KVB Reddy, stated, “I am delighted today, and I am very thankful to all the Hyderabadis for welcoming and embracing Hyderabad Metro Rail services in an overwhelming manner.
We have touched this number earlier than expected with only the Nagole Ameerpet Miyapur operational stretch, and we are sure that these numbers will increase manifold with the inauguration of Ameerpet LB Nagar stretch, he said.
The last and first mile connectivity measures have significantly improved and there are many options available once one deboards the train to reach the destination. Soon passengers will experience more new facilities which will be introduced, he added.
Hyderabad Metro Rail’s next stretch for commissioning, 16 km between Ameerpet and L.B. Nagar, is likely to happen around September 15. All works, testing and commissioning activities have been completed and trial runs are underway.
