DMRC to run underground Mumbai Metro
In a significant step ahead of commissioning of the much-awaited underground Mumbai Metro, the Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation Ltd (MMRC) has awarded the contract for the Operation and Maintenance (O&M) of the Colaba-Bandra-SEEPZ Metro Line-3 to the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation Ltd (DMRC).
The contract was awarded after an international competitive bidding process in which DMRC emerged as the lowest successful bidder.
The contract for the O&M of Mumbai Metro Line-3 is a significant milestone for MMRC in making the line operational. The selected O&M contractor DMRC is a pioneer in the metro rail sector in India, having successfully operated and maintained the Delhi Metro for over two decades.
