The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has entered the Limca Book of World Records for erecting 200 U-shaped girders.
DMRC successfully executed the task of erecting 200 U-shaped girders on the Noida – Greater Noida corridor in May 2016. This is the maximum number of U-shaped girders ever launched on any metro corridor in India within a month.
Girders bear the load of the metro tracks and help speed up construction work.
The 30-km-long corridor will be completely elevated and will have 21 stations.
All stations will be equipped with platform screen doors, rainwater harvesting facilities and solar panels.
