The Operations Control Center (OCC) in Koyambedu depot, which is the nerve centre of Chennai Metro Rail, is likely to be completed very shortly.
 
The OCC in Koyambedu will be monitoring all the Metro trains, including those plying on the underground stretches. It will pass on live information to the station masters as well as train operators. Another senior official said that OCC could track passengers at all times through surveillance cameras. This will provide deterrence against crime, especially against women.
 
It will also be in touch with the train operator through a wireless radio. Even the lifts and elevators will be monitored through the OCC.
