The Kochi Metro Rail Ltd (KMRL) has invited expressions of interest (EoI) for operating more e-autorickshaws as feeders from Metro stations. As per the EoI document, KMRL aims to ensure that its commuters have access to seamless, sustainable, environment friendly, comfortable, safe and affordable connectivity options to and from Metro stations.
The service providers will be granted feeder licence to operate from and park on the Metro station premises during the operating hours. As many as 58 autos would be introduced as part of the project.
The services would be available at Aluva (10 autos), Palarivattom, Vyttila (13), Vadakkekotta, Petta, SN Jn and Tripunithura (15) stations.
KMRL is also planning to launch an integrated public transport system interlinking Metro trains, Water Metro boat services and buses in the city.
