The team of engineers was led by L&T MRHL MD NVS Reddy and HMRL MD KVB Reddy. Over the trial run, various parameters were noted.
Two-line track functionality is present instead of the usual two-single-line way. The method is used globally. The line would take a few months to accommodate stations beyond Hitec City Metro station.
