Kolkata Metro Set to Launch Airport Line by Year-End

Kolkata Metro is gearing up to introduce a new airport line by the year's end, aiming to significantly improve city-wide transportation. This new line, an extension of the existing metro network, promises enhanced connectivity for commuters travelling to and from Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport.

The upcoming airport metro line is part of Kolkata Metro's efforts to expand its reach and cater to the growing transportation needs of the city. Once operational, it is expected to ease traffic congestion and provide a faster, more reliable alternative for air travellers and daily commuters alike.

The project has been in the pipeline for some time, with authorities focusing on infrastructure development and ensuring seamless integration with existing metro services. This initiative not only aims to reduce travel time but also aligns with broader urban development goals aimed at improving public transit accessibility across Kolkata.

Passengers can anticipate modern amenities and efficient service standards similar to those of other metro lines in the city. The introduction of this new line underscores Kolkata Metro's commitment to enhancing urban mobility and addressing the city's evolving transportation demands.

As the deadline approaches, final preparations are underway to ensure the smooth inauguration and operational readiness of the airport metro line. This development marks a significant milestone in Kolkata's public transportation landscape, promising enhanced connectivity and convenience for residents and visitors alike.
