Bengaluru Metro Pink Line Nears Completion
The Bengaluru Metro's Pink Line is almost ready.
This week, the first train will arrive for testing.
The tests will check if the train can safely run on straight tracks and curves at speeds a bit faster than usual.
After the tests, the metro officials will make a report and send it to the railway board.
They need special permission from the CMRS before they can start taking passengers.
This is an important step to make sure the metro is safe for everyone.
First train for Bengaluru Metro's Pink Line arrives this week.
Test track includes straight sections and curves.
Train will be tested at speeds 10% higher than maximum operating speed.
BMRCL will prepare a detailed report for the railway board.
Final authorization from CMRS required before passenger services can begin.
