Drones to Monitor Tracks & Tunnels
Sky-High Safety Checks
India has introduced its first drone-based metro inspection system, starting with test trials in Delhi and Mumbai. These specialized drones are designed to check tracks, overhead wires, and tunnel integrity without the need to halt metro services. Early tests have shown promising results, allowing faster and more accurate monitoring.



If implemented nationwide, this could become one of the world’s most advanced metro maintenance systems. Commuters may soon enjoy enhanced safety and fewer delays, making India’s metro networks smarter and more reliable.
