During the journey in Delhi Metro, now you will be able to take advantage of 5G Mobile Networks in the next few days. The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has started preparations to install 5G network equipment on the pillars of the corridor.
According to DMRC, it will be started from Samaypur Badli-Huda City Center route of Yellow Line Metro. There are a total of 37 stations on the 49 kilometer corridor from HUDA City Center to Samaypur Badli. 3 to 4 lakh passengers travel daily on this route. DMRC has divided the work of setting up 5G mobile network on pillars into three phases.
According to DMRC, the Samaypur Badli-Huda City Center route will be completed in the first phase from Samaypur Badli to GTB Nagar, from Saket to Arjangarh in the second phase and from Arjangarh to HUDA City Center in the third phase. Delhi Metro will install 5G mobile network equipment on 795 pillars of this route.
Work will be completed in three phases
DMRC has invited tender for installation of 5G network equipment. Instead of setting up 5G network, the telecom company will pay rent to DMRC. This rent will be charged per pillar. It has not been decided yet how much the rent will be. The fare will be decided only after the application of the telecom companies.
Delhi Metro has released the tender.
Delhi Metro’s Airport Line, which runs from New Delhi to Dwarka Sector 21, is being extended up to Dwarka Sector 25. 5G Network C facility is already available in the expansion area. This underground corridor is ready. Metro management has said that the installation of 5G equipment will not only benefit the passengers but also the people living around the station and the corridor. Along with this, the revenue of Metro will also increase.
Significantly, due to the G-20 conference in Delhi this year, many works are going to be done like high speed 5G network, beautiful roads, double decker buses, preparing better footpaths for commuting from metro stations to colonies. 5G network has already been enabled at IGI Airport. In such a situation, work has started on 5G network service in Delhi Metro as well. More than 5000 towers are being set up in Delhi for 5G network.
