Kolkata: Metro is adding 14 more services on the North-South (Blue) Line between Noapara and New Garia (Kavi Subhas). Faced with huge crowd pressure along the North-South Metro ever since frequencies were increased to allow most trains to start from Dakshineswar instead of Dum Dum, Metro authorities decided to revise the services on the Blue Line from Monday to Saturday starting Jan 13, on a trial basis.
"From Monday, 14 additional services (7 UP and 7 DN) will be operated between Noapara and Kavi Subhash in morning (9 am to 11 am) and evening (5 pm to 8 pm)," a Metro spokesperson said. On Dec 23, services that earlier started or terminated from/at Dum Dum were started or terminated from/at Dakshineswar. . Services were since operated at 7-minute intervals.
