New Delhi: For the greater convenience of passengers and enhanced user experience, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) on Wednesday launched its revamped official website and mobile application.
DMRC said its revamped official website and mobile application is the world’s most feature-rich and advanced interactive digital platform on the metro railway.
The newly-designed official website and mobile application of DMRC were launched by DMRC Managing Director Mangu Singh at Metro Bhawan in the presence of other senior officials.
The new website and mobile application are loaded with many features such as interactive route maps, advanced station search options, real-time first and last train time calculator, next and nearest station alert on the app etc. These new-age facilities have been designed after months of thorough research during which DMRC officials scanned through the websites and mobile applications of all major transport systems across the world.
DMRC chief Mangu Singh said, “This mobile app and the website will give almost every possible information which a passenger is required to know whether it is the operations of the line, the level of services and interruption to the services or the facilities provided. All information in one place.”
“A comparative study of the official websites of leading metro systems across the world revealed that Delhi Metro’s website has more features for passenger convenience than any other similar website operational in other cities. As part of the research process, a dedicated team of officials also studied the feedback provided by the commuters from time to time and incorporated the necessary improvements. A specialized team of IT professionals has also been roped in to design and maintain the website,” he said.
Mangu Singh also said that a lot of additional effort has been made to ensure that the website and mobile applications are safe and resistant against virus attacks. Intermittent audits are conducted from time to time to ensure the same.
