Ticket vending machines for Metro

Delhi Metro would soon get new ticket vending machines

Peeved at standing in long queues at metro stations in Delhi? Don't worry! The long wait will soon end as the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is set to install automatic ticket vending machines at select metro stations in the national capital.

Commuters will be able to get their metro tokens from the vending machines installed at Barakambha Road, Central Secretariat and Vishwa Vidayalaya metro stations from the end of April. The DMRC has procured 16 such machines to be installed at various metro stations in the capital.
"The move is to reduce the head on the manual ticketing system. The three metro stations see huge ridership everyday and the token vending machines will help the commuters get their tickets soon," a DMRC spokesperson said.

Commuters, who have credit cards, will also be able to recharge their 'Metro Smart Card' through the ticket vending machine. The 'Smart Card' is a hit among the commuters as it helps them to board a train any time.
