Note that before this, the Nagpur Metro was also named in the Asia Book of Records and India Book of Records respectively for the longest double-decker viaduct in Asia and India,
As part of this construction feat, an 18.9-metre-wide steel girder has been used across live railway tracks that are 28 metres high from the ground. The double-decker viaduct has three metro stations namely Chhatrapati Nagar, Jai Prakash Nagar and Ujjwal Nagar.
