The recently lines include lines from Baiyappanahalli to Krishnarajapura, Kengeri to Challaghatta, Nagasandra to Modawara, and RV road to Bommasandra.

“The total addition of new lines by the end of 2024 will be 27 km. Further, in the next three years, the metro network will be increased from 70 km to 176 km i.e, 2.5 times the present network coverage.
