Metro might be coming to Lucknow a little late, but there are a few things, which will set it apart from all others. Lucknow metro will be the first in India, to provide the commuters with free purified and chilled drinking water. LMRC will also provide free toilet services at all the metro stations.
Not only this, the city’s metro will be the first in the country to have its own FM radio station along with a collaboration with a private radio station, which will provide information regarding metro safety.
