The work done under the leadership of  Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the entire country has inspired all of us and Maha Metro under the leadership of Dr Brijesh Dixit and is entire team has created this state of art infrastructure which is not only finest aesthetically but absolutely people friendly. I am very happy to be associated with Maha Metro since its inception and look forward to see many more wonderful creations from Maha Metro.

Metro Bhawan is also a Platinum Rated Building and a centre of excellence. I once again congratulate the team Maha Metro for the wonderful work it has done in the state of Maharashtra.

1. Longest Length of Metro Rail Corridor Construction in Shortest Time: Maha Metro executed construction of 24 km long length of Metro rail Corridor in a record span of 51 months, thus laying almost one km of track every two months. Of the 40 km, the work of 24 km including At-grade & Viaduct sections, 3 At-grade stations and 5 elevated stations, has been completed and commissioned in 51 months. This Corridor includes Reach-1 from Sitabuldi Interchange to Khapri Metro Station on the North South Segment which is 13.50 km long and Sitabuldi Interchange to Lokmanya Nagar Metro Station on the East West Segment which is 10.60 km long.

2. First Solar PV System in a Metro Rail Project for Integrated Consumption: Maha Metro has designed Integrated Roof Top, Grid Connected, Net Metered Solar Power system, with potential of upto 50% of energy requirements of Metro. The Solar PV generates 415 V AC and utilizes at various levels from 48 V DC to 132 KV AC for Traction, Stations and EV Charging. Already 5 MWp has been commissioned and another 5.5 MWp is under process. In all 33 Lac units (KWh) has been generated till now and ₹ 5.5 Cr has been saved in the process.

3. Heaviest Single Span Double Decker Steel Bridge Truss over Railway tracks in Urban Area: The Steel Bridge Truss at Gaddigodam is unique, first of its kind in India in terms of design, transportation and adopting state of the art fabrication and launching technique. This 1634 ton steel bridge is made of high strength steel and the assembly, erection and launching have been carried out in urban area with utmost precision and accuracy near Gaddigodam. This four-layer transport section is located in densely populated urban area, makes the Metro Rail level on truss, one of the highest in all four corridors. The structure is one of its kind anywhere on a Metro Rail system which not only serves Highway Flyover and Metro Rail, but also accommodates an existing road, RuB and busy Indian Railway tracks.

It may be recalled that, Wardha Road Double Decker – which was constructed by Maha Metro Nagpur, was chosen for the prestigious Guinness World Record. It has been identified as `Longest Double Decker Via-Duct (Metro)’ by Guinness World Records across the world on 5th December last year.
