Metro tickets

Metro Railway will launch on Wednesday an "integrated mobile-based QR coded ticketing system", said an official. With this, a passenger can buy QR-coded tickets from mobile phones to switch between three corridors -- Green Line 2 of EastWest Metro (between Howrah Maidan and Esplanade), Blue Line (north-south corridor, between New Garia and Dakshineswar) and Orange Line (between New Garia and Ruby crossing). Esplanade and New Garia are the two interface stations -- from where a passenger can switch from one corridor to another -- at the moment.

The carrier already has the provision for QR-coded tickets but on each corridor separately. P. Uday Kumar Reddy, the general manager, will inaugurate the facility at Kalighat Metro station on Wednesday, the carrier said.
