Nine metro lines to restart work today after Lockdown-MMRDA

MMRDA will restart construction on all nine Metro corridors, but in non-containment zones in the city from Monday.

Nearly a month after the lockdown brought work to a halt, Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) will restart construction on all nine Metro corridors, but in non-containment zones in the city from Monday.

Following theUnion government’s guidelines on relaxation of lockdown norms, MMRDA has asked contractors to begin work after getting approval from the local civic bodies.

An MMRDA official said, “Work has already begun on flyovers, the Mumbai Trans-Harbour Link (MTHL). Work on Metro projects will begin from today (Monday). We will follow all the guidelines of social distancing and have already put in place precautionary measures at the sites.”

All the workers have been provided safety kits like face masks, gloves and hand sanitizers, the official added.

However, the delay so far is likely to impact project deadlines. With lockdown still on across the country, delivery of important components willextend beyond timelines. According to an official, a status report is being prepared and revised deadlines will be finalised .

MMRDA commissioner RA Rajeev has already announced that the organisation has decided to bear the additional cost of maintaining around 11,000 labourers, besides ensuring sanitation and health check-ups in labour camps.
