“The Yamuna Bank-Noida City Centre section will be inspected by the Commissioner for Metro Railway Safety (CMRS) on November 10 and 11. Subject to receiving clearance, a ceremonial flag-off has been planned in Delhi and Noida on Thursday, November 12,” said DMRC spokesperson Anuj Dayal.
“The section is planned to be opened for the general public from 6 am on November 13.”
The 13.1-km Metro line was earlier scheduled to be operational by October, but was delayed as the DMRC was running short of trains and had to strengthen around 8 piers on the line, on which cracks were detected. But with the India International Trade Fair slated to begin on November 14, DMRC decided to inaugurate the line earlier to facilitate easy travel to the fair from Noida.
The completely elevated Metro corridor has 10 stations and will be integrated with the existing 34.3-km Yamuna Bank-Dwarka Sector-9 segment, extending the total length of Line-3 to 47.4 km and making it the longest Metro corridor so far.

hi hello n congrats to all metro workers n DDA for starting metro in noida its a grt achievement but i just wanted to know dat whn willl dis gurgaon metro starts plz tell me if anyone knows????????
Good luck travelling on this newly built death line. I give it two years before parts of it start falling off. Of course, driving a Nano will not improve your chances of staying alive either.
Prophets of doom please excuse. Has there been any death of any commuter bcoz of delhi metro. None. It was only of construction labourers. Is Mr.NonA aware of the deaths caused on Delhi roads. Please get your facts correct. I am a daily commuter and I wish DMRC all the best. No wish for pessimissts.
man this guy nona sux...I wont believe any guy living in NCR will not cherish the inauguration of metro apart from blueline people
Good show by the DMRC. I hope that the shortcuts taken to open the track in time for the IITF are well sorted out before any mishap happens.
