DMRC said it had begun the assessment last week but announced it on Friday, after two back-to-back incidents of infrastructural collapse in the Metro network within a week. While the first incident claimed the life of a 53-year-old man and injured four others, the second injured a 26-year-old woman.
The scope of the repair work, officials said, would include replastering loose concrete on walls and removing and cleaning drain covers and their adjacent parapets.
The Metro also said it was securing all pipes and fittings with clamps on a priority basis, with these pipes to eventually be replaced with the more durable uPVC pipes.
