Strikingly, the Greentech Foundation is an organization that chooses and felicitates innovators in the industry for their contribution to the protection or safety of the environment and Corporate Social Responsibility. The same organisation had felicitated Kanpur Metro’s priority corridor with an Effective Safety Culture Award, last year.

Talking about the recent felicitation by the Greentech Foundation, Kumar Keshav, the Managing Director of UPMRC said, “Environment protection has always been our priority. Under the Kanpur Metro Project, we have translocated trees, made suitable arrangements for rainwater harvesting, developed greenbelts on the Priority Section, installed treatment plants to recycle water in the Metro Depot etc. UPMRC is fully committed towards environmental conservation. Previously, the Priority Section of Kanpur Metro Rail Project has also received ISO 14001 certificate for environmental management.”

Staying true to its mission, UPMRC has planted over 10,000 plants and saplings along the priority corridor in Kanpur and translocated more than 100 trees as well. Apart from this, UPMRC has also taken various steps to ensure the station remains energy efficient. Additionally, every metro station on this corridor has been equipped with proper waste management systems and rainwater harvesting setups.

Notably, this is not the first time that Kanpur Metro has attracted the limelight for environmental protection. Kanpur Metro’s Priority Corridor from IIT Kanpur to Motijheel had received the certificate of being a ‘Green Metro Rail System’ by the Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) in December 2021. Not only this, all nine stations on this stretch were awarded platinum rating certificates as well.
