Answer: What is Chennai Metro Rail Limited mean?

The Chennai Metro is a rapid transit system serving the city of Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. It is the fourth longest metro system in India after Delhi Metro, Hyderabad metro and Namma Metro. The system commenced service in 2015 after partially opening the first phase of the project. The network consists of two colour-coded lines covering a length of 54.15 kilometres (33.65 mi). The Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL), a joint venture between Government of India and the Government of Tamil Nadu built and operates the Chennai Metro. The system has a mix of underground and elevated stations and uses standard gauge. The services operate daily between 4:30 and 23:00 with a varying frequency of 5 to 14 minutes.

The system has also planned to takeover the existing Chennai Mass Rapid Transit System by 2022, which would be upgraded to operate using the rolling stock of the Chennai Metro. CMRL was recognised by the International Association of Public Transport in 2011.

Construction of the first stretch began in June 2009, between Koyambedu to Alandur over a distance of 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) and began operation on 29 June 2015. As of February 2021, Chennai Central to St. Thomas Mount on the Green line and Wimco Nagar to Chennai International Airport on Blue line are commercially operational which brings the total operational network to 54.15 km (33.65 mi) making it the third largest operating metro system in India.
