According to sources aimed at increasing patronage for metro services, the Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) has launched a feeder service cab at a flat rate of Rs 10 to enable metro users to travel between the stations and their residences. Reportedly the service was launched on Monday and will help commuters book a seat in the cab and pay using their Metro smart card. Meanwhile the service was launched on Monday by the state Minister for Industries MC Sampath.

Furthermore the feeder service will operate through a mobile app in collaboration with Bengaluru Megacabs Private Limited.  Meanwhile when designed to work like Ola and Uber cab aggregator apps, this application will enable users to choose the nearest pickup point following which the app will provide the arrival time of the cab. Perhaps every station is provided with at least five pickup points within an area of six to eight kilometers from the station and the service, which was inaugurated at the Nandanam station on Monday, will soon be made available at all stations in the next three months.



Earlier in January this year, the CMRL launched feeder services to the Old mahabalipuram Road (OMR) in collaboration with ford’s corporate shuttle feeder services. Perhaps the service was launched at the Alandur Metro station and was designed to ferry commuters to their offices on the IT corridor.
