DMRC hastens Janakpuri West-RK Ashram corridor
The DMRC has fast-tracked the Janakpuri West-RK Ashram corridor by launching the first U-girder for the DC-01A package, executed by H.G. Infra Engineering Limited (HGIEL). The contract was awarded to HGIEL in January 2023, and the first pier (P116) was installed in June 2023. This milestone was achieved along the northbound lanes in Paschim Vihar. It was originally a part of Delhi Metro’s 12.375 Km long DC-01 package, that was awarded to CECC-KEC JV in November 2019. It included the construction of four stations including Keshopur, Paschim Vihar, Peeragarhi & Mangolpuri. A few portions of the Krishna Park Extension ramp Mangolpuri section were delayed due to environmental clearances. The DC-01 package was then spun off to produce a separate DC-01A package.
