UP Metro consummates all Piles, Pile Caps & Piers upto Kalyanpur

Kanpur: Before the announcement of 'Janta Curfew' followed by lockdown, Uttar Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation was executing the civil construction work of Priority Corridor (IIT Kanpur to Motijheel) with remarkable pace.

Lock down imposed due to COVID-19 pandemic put a hold on that pace but after getting nod from the district administration to resume civil construction of the corridor on 15th May, 2020, the Corporation is moving ahead with proper strategy so that the available workforce can be utilized most efficiently for the best possible outcomes.

As a result of this dedication and strategic course of action, UPMRC has successfully completed all the construction works related with piles, pile caps and piers that fall under the stretch till Kalyanpur. Till now, UPMRC has completed construction of total 931 piles, 87 pile caps and 69 piers for the Priority Corridor.

On this occasion, with a sense of achievement, UPMRC's MD Shri Kumar Keshav said,"Regaining the pace of civil construction that we had before lock down is surely a challenge but with each passing day, we are getting closer to previous rhythm and pace and for this all credit goes to Metro engineers' vision, planning, preparation and fine sense of execution."
