Delhi Metro Restores Full Network Access as Central Station Closures End

Central Delhi Transport Restrictions Lifted

Normal transit operations have resumed across the capital as the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) ended its phased lockdown of regional hubs. All stations that were previously shuttered to manage movement in the city's core are now fully operational, allowing passengers to navigate the entire network without interruption.

Phased Reopening Concludes

The return to standard scheduling follows a weekend of tactical closures enforced by local authorities. These security-driven restrictions focused primarily on key transit points within Central Delhi. Officials confirmed that the gradual rollout of reopening procedures finished on schedule, ensuring that:

  • All entry and exit gates at previously blocked stations are now accessible.
  • Interchange facilities within the central zone have returned to peak capacity.
  • Normal train frequencies have been restored across all active lines.
