Bengaluru Plans 287 Km Circular Rail Network at Rs 230 Bn

Bengaluru is set to embark on a transformative infrastructure project with the development of a 287 km long circular rail network, estimated at Rs 230 billion. The Detailed Project Report (DPR) is currently under preparation for this ambitious initiative aimed at enhancing urban connectivity and easing commuter traffic in the city.

The proposed circular rail network will serve as a crucial addition to Bengaluru's public transport infrastructure, connecting major suburban areas and reducing dependency on road transport. It is expected to significantly improve travel efficiency, reduce congestion, and promote sustainable urban mobility.

The project envisions modern amenities and state-of-the-art facilities along the circular rail route, designed to cater to the city's growing population and commuter demands. This includes integration with existing metro lines and bus networks to create a seamless multi-modal transport system.

Bengaluru's initiative underscores a strategic focus on enhancing public transport infrastructure to address urban mobility challenges and support economic growth. The circular rail network is poised to boost real estate development along its corridors, stimulate local economies, and improve overall quality of life for residents.

As Bengaluru moves forward with its ambitious urban rail project, stakeholders anticipate significant socio-economic benefits, including job creation, enhanced accessibility to commercial hubs, and improved environmental sustainability through reduced vehicular emissions.

In conclusion, the planned 287 km circular rail network in Bengaluru represents a pivotal step towards modernising urban transport infrastructure, fostering sustainable development, and meeting the evolving mobility needs of India's technology capital.
