Metro trains crossing Yamuna bridges with restricted speed, says DMRC
Delhi Metro trains are crossing the four Yamuna bridges with a restricted speed of 30 kmph as a precautionary measure due to rising water level of the Yamuna, the DMRC said on Thursday.
The swollen river has crossed the danger mark, breaching the all-time record of 1978, flooding low-lying areas near the banks.
At 10 am on Thursday, the water level in Yamuna was at 208.53 metres.
“Due to rising water levels of the Yamuna, trains are passing through all the four Metro bridges on the river with a restricted speed of 30 kmph as a precautionary measure. Normal services on all corridors,” the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) tweeted.
