After being shut for more than five months due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Delhi Metro resumed full operations Saturday, with even the Orange line shuttling between airport and city.
The metro services took off on 7 September with curtailed operation. Now, all metro lines have opened and the timing will follow the pre-Covid schedule of 6 am to 11 pm.
The usually bustling metro had about 7,500 passengers use the service Monday morning. Only the yellow line has opened as DMRC resumes metro operations in a phased manner.
On the first day, the Yellow Line, between HUDA City Centre and Samaypur Badli, is to run from 7 to 11 am and from 4 to 8 pm. The metro will resume full services from 12 September.
DMRC restarted services in Yellow line with cutailed operations.The trains will operate in batches of four-hour each from 7-11 am in the morning and 4-8 pm in the evening.
Doctors differ on when the Metro should ideally resume services, but agree that basic preventive measures will go a long way. They also don't expect to see a repeat of June's spike.
