This is the reason that the Project is classified as a Gender Integrated Project.

Special needs of the elderly and the physically challenged are taken into consideration when designing stations and coaches (e.g., universally designed elevators and escalators, announcements at stations, signs in Braille, and space for wheelchairs) by learning from precedents such as accessibility considerations adopted by Delhi Metro, in accordance with the accessibility-related laws and policies of India.
