Firms Chosen for Vital Geotechnical Studies in Namma Metro Phase 3

The Namma Metro Phase 3 project in Bengaluru has reached a significant milestone with the selection of firms to carry out essential geotechnical studies. These studies are crucial for assessing soil and rock conditions along the new metro lines, which will inform the design and construction processes.

The geotechnical surveys will involve detailed investigations of ground conditions to ensure the stability and safety of the metro infrastructure. This includes drilling boreholes, analysing soil samples, and evaluating potential challenges such as groundwater levels and soil composition.

Phase 3 of the Namma Metro project is set to expand the city's metro network with new lines connecting key areas, enhancing urban mobility and reducing traffic congestion. The results of these studies will play a vital role in planning and executing the construction of stations, tracks, and tunnels.

The selection of these firms is a crucial step in advancing the project, which aims to improve public transport and support Bengaluru's growing population. The geotechnical studies are expected to provide valuable insights that will guide the next phases of the project, ensuring its successful and timely completion.
