BMRCL Plans to Expand Network by 197 km

24 Mar 2025 CW Team

Bengaluru Namma Metro officials announced on Thursday plans to expand the metro network further, with a survey underway for a 197 km extension to the current network.

Officials revealed that in addition to the ongoing expansion of existing routes, new metro services will be introduced in regions including Ramanagara, Bangalore Rural, and Tumkur districts.

The BMRCL is planning eight new routes, with a major extension of the airport route up to Devanahalli. This extension will not only provide greater convenience for local residents but will also boost the area's economic activity. There are also reports suggesting that the expansion will positively impact the real estate market in Devanahalli.

The feasibility study for the 197 km expansion is expected to be completed by July 2025, with the report to be submitted to the state government. The final approval for the routes will be decided by the state government, although at least half of the proposed routes are expected to be approved.

Officials added that the Yellow Line of Namma Metro, connecting RV Road to Bommasandra over 19.15 km, is expected to begin operations by late April or May 2025.

Furthermore, the Pink and Blue Lines are anticipated to be completed by 2026, significantly enhancing Bengaluru’s public transport system.
