Mirpur-10 metro station to reopen shortly

Mirpur-10 metro rail station is expected to resume operation shortly as the system of every parameter was witnessed satisfactory following the final test for reopening of the station on Thursday morning, reports BSS.
"We've completed the test operation of Mirpur-10 metro rail station successfully. Everything is satisfactory. System of every parameter is also Ok," Managing Director of Dhaka Metro Transit Company Limited (DMTCL) Abdur Rouf told the news agency.
Mirpur-10 and Kazipara stations were vandalised by miscreants during the anti-discrimination student movement on July 19.
Abdur Rouf said two trains were engaged to run through Mirpur-10 station, which was satisfactory. The first train was stopped at the station at 6:10am while the second one at 6:20am, he added. During the operation of the two trains, a technical team was present and observed the test operation, the managing director added.
"We have successfully conducted the final test for reopening the Mirpur-10 metro station after repair and replacement of partially and fully damaged equipment," said Abdur Rouf.
He said the Mirpur-10 station was repaired quickly considering commuters' demand.
Equipment repair and replacement cost for Mirpur-10 station will be higher than Kazipara station, as it was damaged massively, he added.
