New, Historic Milestone For Lucknow Metro As Ridership Crosses Four Crore

Lucknow, February 10 (TNA) Uttar Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation (UPMRC) logged a new record to its name on Thursday as the ridership in the Lucknow Metro Rail crossed four crore. According to an official, so far 4.04 crore passengers have travelled by Lucknow Metro in the last 4 years and 4 months.

This achievement is also significant because despite the three waves of the Covid epidemic in the last years, the UP Metro has maintained the confidence of the commuters. Lucknow Metro started services on 8.5 km long priority corridor between Charbagh to Transport Nagar on 5 September 2017.
