The Pune metro on Tuesday completed the viaducts’ work on reach 2 (Vanaz metro station to Civil court metro station).
Dr Brijesh Dixit, managing director, Maha Metro, said, “This work has been made possible due to the active support and cooperation of the central government, state government, Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC), and all other government institutions. In the next few months, the metro will start service for passengers up to the Civil court station.”
With this, the Pune metro has completed the launch of all 2,631 pre-stressed concrete box segments, 41 pre-stressed concrete I girders, and one 48m steel girder span in reach 2. This implies that the Pune metro has completed a total of 296 viaduct spans and 12 depot line spans of the east-west corridor of the Pune Metro Rail Project (PMRP) from Vanaz to Civil court, which is a 7.505km-long viaduct including the depot line at Vanaz.
