Delhi commuters face Metro snag again

New Delhi: Commuters faced problems travelling in Delhi Metro's Blue Line on Thursday morning as train services were affected on the entire stretch due to a signalling issue; a day after the corridor faced a similar technical snag twice.

The Blue Line connects Dwarka to Noida and Vaishali. Vaishali section branches off from Yamuna Bank, an intersection station. 

"There is some signalling issue which is intermittently surfacing on Yamuna Bank to Vaishali section of the Blue Line, affecting punctuality of services on the entire Blue Line," a senior DMRC official said. 

He said a temporary arrangement for train services has been made till the problem is solved. 

"Train services between Dwarka and Noida are running seamless in one go with a frequency of around 4 minutes and 30 seconds on an automatic mode through central control, i.e., Operations Control Centre," the official said.
