In Dec. 2005, the Delhi Metro consists of three lines totalling 56 km with 50 stations:
Line 1 extended its total length to 21.3 km (18 stations) on 31 March 2004 with the inauguration of the Inder Lok - Rithala section. The entire new section is elevated and runs on a viaduct constructed mostly on road medians.
The previous two sections of Line 1 were opened on 25 December 2002 (Shahdara to Tis Hazari - 8.3km, 6 stations) and 3 October 2003 (Tis Hazari to Inder Lok - 4.1km, 4 stations) respectively. The three opened sections are a part of the 28km long Line 1 of the Delhi Metro system. The maximum speed of the Metro is 80km/h. The average stoppage time at the station is 20 seconds.
Train-sets of four coaches in rake have been put into service. They run at intervals of 8 to 10 minutes from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. The frequency of service and times of operation will be increased as the commuter traffic builds up. The system is designed to operate at a frequency of 3 minutes.
Line 2, which runs between Vishwa Vidyalaya (Delhi University, North Campus) and Central Secretariat, is underground for its entire 11 km length. The route passes through the city centre, or the central business district at Connaught Place. The stations along the route were built by cut-and-cover technique except at Chawri Bazar where tunneling was used. Metro Stations are located 12.85 m below ground level except at the highly congested Chawri Bazar station which is located at 20 m below ground.
Line 3 runs mostly elevated or at grade with a short underground section in central New Delhi. When completed in mid-2006 it will be 33.5 km long. Line 3 intersects with Line 2 at Connaught Place, but does not provide interchange with Line 1.
