Bengaluru Metro Boosts Safety with Platform Screen Doors

Bengaluru Metro is taking a significant step towards enhancing passenger safety by installing Platform Screen Doors (PSDs) at new stations. The introduction of PSDs is designed to improve safety measures and prevent accidents by providing a physical barrier between the platform and the tracks.

The initiative aligns with the metro system's commitment to ensuring a secure and reliable commuting experience for passengers. The installation of PSDs is expected to mitigate the risk of accidents, enhance crowd management, and contribute to overall operational efficiency.

The new stations, equipped with PSDs, are anticipated to offer a safer environment for passengers, particularly during peak hours when crowd management is crucial. The move reflects the metro authorities' proactive approach to adopting modern safety measures in line with global best practices.

The implementation of PSDs at Bengaluru Metro stations is a noteworthy advancement in urban transportation safety. As the metro network continues to expand, prioritising passenger safety remains a key focus for ensuring the sustainability and effectiveness of public transportation in Bengaluru.
