The inspection included quality of civil, electrical and systems like signalling work, quality of track work, platform screen doors works at Thirumangalam station, Thirumangalam and Anna Nagar Tower underground station works and safety- related works.
The trials and inspections will be done for several months, and will gradually cover more stretches and systems from Koyembedu up to Nehru Park (8.5 km).
