Progress of Dum Dum Cantonment metro station

An amount of Rs 127 crore contract to build this station along with a mostly at-grade 2.16 km section from the Baghjola Canal to the existing ramp of the Airport Circular Railway track was awarded to Senbo Engineering all the way back in June 2011. Since then, the station’s civil structure has been built, but work for the at-grade track section has not been able to commence due to land acquisition issues on a horrific scale along the line’s proposed alignment which the West Bengal government has taken no interest in resolving.
