The HUGE Metro System You Don’t Hear Much About | Delhi Metro Explained

by



The Delhi Metro is HUGE with nearly 400 kilometers of track and moves millions every day, yet even most urbanists probably aren’t all that familiar with it! In today’s video we hope to change that by explaining all the things that make this monster of a metro so impressive!

  3. One more fact about our metro :
    Metro card user gets 10% for every journey
    One more:
    And there is special timings where you get another 10% off (only for card users)
    -Before 8am
    -b/w 12pm to 5
    -after 9pm
    So if you're card user you'll get 20% on special timings
    One more:
    Now metro has replaced tokens with QR tickets 😊

  8. The only draw back in the city is that last mile connectivity is ZERO. Far more people will get add on the Metro if reliable, safe, clean, efficient with high frequency last mile connectivity is provided to all the colonies in atleast 5 Km. radius of each station.

  21. This Metro system seriously baffled me when I travelled outside the country. VERY few systems in the world come close to it in terms of riding comfort, speed and the overall expansive nature of the Metro. I've been to some of the wealthiest nations on this planet and their Metro systems don't even come close to DMR network.

  34. Admirable video. Thank you! As a resident of Greater Delhi, I have a few doubts:
    1. Why do you think 5 million ridership is less? While Delhi has a huge population, it is still a city. According to me, 5 million is a significant footfall per day
    2. Why did you say that connectivity to Indian Railways is not good? Delhi metro is connected to all major and many non-major railway stations of Delhi NCR – Delhi, New Delhi, Hazrat Nizamuddin, Delhi Cantt, Anand Vihar etc.

  38. Man I wish West Bengal had expanded the metro construction at the same pace, even after being the 1st in India to get metro we have been stunned and become the slowest, this corrupt state government fked us.
