Airport Express stalled by late safety audit


New Delhi: The Airport Metro Express looks set for yet another delay. Neither the Delhi Metro nor the concessionaire, Reliance Infrastructure, seems interested in getting the required paperwork ready for the safety inspection.
Talking to TOI, commissioner for rail safety RK Kardam said that he had received the application for safety inspection some time ago. "However, there was further documentation required which has not been provided yet," he said. Without this documentation, the safety inspection cannot take place and the Airport Metro Express will not be opened for revenue service.
Interestingly, repair work on the Delhi Airport Metro Express has been complete for some time now.
