Chennai: Following the request from passengers for transition time from cash to travel card, the implementation of payments for parking charges through CMRL travel cards at Chennai Metro Rail stations which was to be implemented from 1 August has been extended to 1 September.
Passengers or public who are using the CMRL parking spaces, who do not possess a CMRL travel card can buy and top up through customer care/ticketing counters available at CMRL metro stations for usage of the parking payments at all Metro stations, a press release said.
To facilitate seamless transportation of Metro passengers, CMRL introduced a provision of payment of parking fares through the stored value available in CMRL travel cards at all Metro stations on trial basis from July this year.
