The Noida City Centre (also called Wave City Center[1]) is a terminal station on the Blue Line of the Delhi Metro.[2] The other terminal station on the Blue Line is Dwarka Sector 21 metro station.

Repair in 2013

Problem Reported

During a routine check in September 2013, DMRC found that the station was sinking with major cracks appearing in it.[3] However, the officials were not able to acsertain the reason or cause for the sagging. Further inspection of other nearby Stations were made and no problems were found there.

Consequences

Though no trains were cancelled by DMRC, the travel time from the Noida Golf Course metro station to this station increased. The trains were only allowed to run in a very slow pace near this station, as repair work was going on in the station and on pillars 174 and 185.[3] The services of the station had to be shut down for few days

Reaction

DMRC constituted a committee to look into the cause of the problem. an engineer was dismissed following the report submitted by the committee.
