L& T journalAs cities struggle with the unbridled population growth of both people and vehicles, metro rail systems are increasingly being adopted by city after Indian city to ease traffic woes. It is not without reason that some of the toughest and most challenging stretches of the Delhi Metro have been awarded to us – true recognition of our preeminent status as the foremost builder of metro systems in the country. Perhaps, we are helping the people of Delhi to be more mobile! Overseas, too, we are expressing our expertise in building metros as we, along with a host of other global construction giants, are burrowing into the depths under the city of Doha to build the Doha Metro system, and setting a world record in tunneling along the way.
Our Water team has set another record by constructing Asia’s first and largest Micro Filtration (MF) plant of 158 MLD for river water treatment as a part of the design-built 2X800 MW Yermarus Thermal Power Station near Raichur and by executing the complex long-span multi-voltage transmission line to evacuate power from NTPC’s Kudgi Thermal Power Plant, our colleagues from PT&D continue to create corridors of power!
