India TV News  

Kolkata Metro services alert: Metro services on Kolkata's East-West corridor will be suspended for four days starting Thursday to conduct a communication trial, according to an official statement. During this period, train services on the entire Green Line, from Howrah Maidan to Salt Lake Sector V, will remain unavailable to ensure thorough testing of the advanced Communication-Based Train Control system. "On successful completion of tunnelling work between Esplanade and Sealdah stations, Metro Railway Kolkata is going to grant complete traffic block in two spells starting from tomorrow and again from February 20 to 23 for testing of Communication Based Train Control System on the entire Green Line Metro corridor from Howrah Maidan to Salt Lake Sector-V," the statement read. Currently, metro services are available along the corridor from Howrah Maidan to Esplanade and from Sealdah to Sector-V. Due to cave-in during tunnelling work at Bowbazar along the Esplanade-Sealdah stretch and seepage of underground water in September 2019 as the boring machine hit an aquifer and at least two more similar incidents in subsequent years, services could not commence along the 2.5-km-long Esplanade-Sealdah stretch of the 16.6-km-long East-West corridor.
