On the Violet Line, which runs from Kashmere Gate station to Raja Nahar Singh station, the former stadium is located just next to the Delhi Gate Metro station.

The Delhi Metro has decided to make extra trips by extending its last train timings by about 30 minutes on all but one of its lines to allow spectators to reach their destinations without difficulty in light of the numerous ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 matches scheduled to be held at the Arun Jaitley Stadium here, officials said on Friday.

On Thursday, the 50-over World Cup began in India.

The Delhi Metro has made minor changes to its last train timings on all lines (except Airport Express Line) to facilitate the movement of spectators during the Cricket World Cup 2023 matches (day and night) scheduled to be held on the 7th, 11th, 15th, 25th, and 6th November 2023 at Arun Jaitley Stadium (Ferozeshah Kotla Grounds) in New Delhi, the DMRC said in a statement.

On the Violet Line, which runs from Kashmere Gate station to Raja Nahar Singh station, the former stadium is located just next to the Delhi Gate Metro station.

The Delhi Metro will operate extra train trips (about 24) by extending its last train timings by about 30 minutes, on all lines, in preparation of a sudden rush anticipated at the adjacent metro stations after the game is done. According to the statement, this will make it easy for spectators to use the Metro to go where they’re going.

To handle the increased crowd of spectators on game day, the DMRC would also deploy extra staff and Customer Facilitation Agents (CFA) at the Delhi Gate Metro station. It read.

The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) warned travellers that the last train times could be subject to additional alterations depending on the match requirements.
