The metro will also have the same colour for the general seating complemented with a bright lime light- green for its priority seating and overhead hand grabs.
The colour combinations were selected according to a study conducted by Tata Elxsi and Kochi Metro Rail Limited (KMRL) today approved this.
The walls and the ceiling are to have a light grey to balance this colour scheme and will have a textured grey along with a pattern of the main colors for the flooring.
