Bengaluru Metro Expansion

Bengaluru Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) is set to significantly enhance the city's metro network by adding 16 new interchange stations. This expansion, part of Phases 2 and 3 of the Namma Metro project, aims to provide seamless connectivity across various metro lines, encouraging greater use of public transport.

Currently, the Nadaprabhu Kempegowda station at Majestic is Bengaluru?s only interchange, connecting the Purple and Green lines. It handles approximately 50,000 daily commuters. The introduction of new interchange stations at strategic locations will distribute passenger flow more evenly and facilitate easier transfers between lines? (NativePlanet)?? (Housing)?.

The new interchange stations will link the Purple, Green, Yellow, Pink, and Blue lines, significantly enhancing the metro network's accessibility. Key locations include Jayadeva Junction, MG Road, KR Puram, Hosahalli, Mysuru Road, Peenya, RV Road, JP Nagar 4th Stage, Dairy Circle, Nagavara, Kempapura, Hebbal, Agara, Central Silk Board, and Sumanahalli Cross?

One of the major highlights is the Jayadeva Junction interchange, which will be the largest and feature a unique double-decker design. This station will connect the Yellow Line from RV Road to Bommasandra and the Pink Line from Kalena Agrahara to Nagawara, easing traffic flow and eliminating the need for signal stops for Silk Board commuters. The station is expected to partially open by the end of this year? (NativePlanet)?? (Housing)?.

This development is anticipated to not only enhance daily commutes but also support Bengaluru?s ongoing efforts to improve urban mobility and reduce traffic congestion. The strategic placement of these interchange stations is designed to maximise commuter convenience, making the metro a more attractive option for daily travel across the city
