Rahee Infratech wins New Garia-Airport Metro contract
The New Garia-Airport Metro corridor project has gained momentum with Rahee Infratech bagging the contract to supply and install ballastless tracks along the Nicco Park-Titumir section. Till now, RVNL was laying tracks along the Ruby-Kavi Subhas section. Rahee Infratech would be issued a work order shortly. In July 2020, Rahee started track installation work for the line's first 6.5 km stretch (New Garia to VIP Bazar). The third rail is also being installed along the 5-km stretch for the 32-km Line 6 which will link New Garia and the airport. The 5-km between Ruby and Kavi Subhas station has a commissioning deadline in 2022. Linxon India has started installing the 750 V third rail electrification systems between Ruby crossing and Kavi Subhas station.
