The Uttar Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation (UPMRC) has made another historic achievement recently by the erection of the first pre-casted double T-girder of the metro corridor under the Kanpur Metro project and by doing this UPMRC added another new feat to its achievements. In fact, before this, double T-girder was never used for preparing slab of the concourse level of a Metro station under any Metro project in India. The strategy of Metro engineers behind the use of double T-girders in the civil construction of Kanpur Metro is that it will beneficial for saving time and for good finishing too.

It is the result of these continuous efforts that for the first time in India, we have achieved an unprecedented achievement using this kind of experiment. This experiment will prove to be very effective in the direction of completing the Kanpur metro project within the stipulated time frame. I congratulate the whole team of Metro engineers, our Design Consultants and Contractor for evolving the concept and successfully implementing it at site.”
