CHENNAI Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) on Monday signed a ₹48.33 crore contract with Faiveley Transport Rail Technologies India Pvt Ltd to upgrade passenger safety systems across its Phase-1 trains by introducing an advanced antidrag door safety feature in all 52 trainsets operating on the Blue and Green lines.
Currently, Chennai Metro trains use automatic sliding doors equipped with obstacle detection sensors that prevent closure when objects obstruct the doorway. The new system detects thinner objects such as sarees, bag straps or belts that could be caught between doors during boarding or alighting.
