Blue Dart to use metro during non-peak hours
Freight services will soon be a reality on Delhi Metro, as logistics company Blue Dart has signed a pact with Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) to use the city transporter's services for the movement of goods, making it the first such move in the South Asia Pacific region.
In a statement on Sunday, the DMRC said Blue Dart would transport cargo via metro trains during non-peak hours, utilising available capacity to ensure faster and more reliable movement of time-sensitive shipments.
The move will boost the DMRC's revenue—hit hard by the Covid-19 pandemic—while reducing road congestion and vehicular emissions. "The DMRC will optimise its resources while reinforcing its commitment to environmentally friendly transport solutions," the transporter said.
