Travel Tips for Delhi

  • Avoid Rajiv Chowk and Kashmere Gate during peak rush hours (08:30-10:30 and 17:30-20:00).
  • The Airport Express Line is much faster than the Yellow Line for reaching the airport from New Delhi station.
  • Most stations have clean drinking water facilities and restrooms.
  • Phase 4 construction is ongoing; check for occasional weekend service updates on the DMRC app.

History of the Delhi Metro

Delhi Metro began operations in December 2002 with the Red Line. Since then, it has grown into one of the largest networks in the world.
