Underground station will be constructed through high -tech machines
UPMRC MD told the media that the tunnel boring machine (TBM) would be used for the underground station. The vibration of these machines will be so low that the truck passing on the road will have less effect. He claimed that this process would neither harm the houses nor any kind of cracks. Stringing technology will also be used if needed.
Keeping in mind the convenience of the passengers, the entry and exit points of the station will be built within a distance of 150 meters. With this, passengers will not have to cover an additional distance.
Blue line will also work in medical emergency
After the Metro’s PGI route is built, this facility will also be effective during medical emergency. With direct connectivity from the airport to the old Lucknow, patients will be able to reach KGMU, PGI and other big hospitals faster.
Lucknow needs 100 to 125 km metro connectivity
