Pune Metro: Maha-Metro Initiates Swargate-Katraj Extension

The Maha-Metro has commenced work on the underground extension of the Pune Metro, connecting Swargate to Katraj. The initiative involves the floating of tenders for the construction of this crucial extension, marking a significant step in enhancing Pune's metro network.

The extension project aims to improve connectivity and accessibility within Pune by expanding the metro line from Swargate to Katraj. The underground nature of this extension underscores the commitment to efficient use of urban space and minimising disruptions during the construction phase.

As Pune continues to evolve as a major urban centre, the expansion of its metro network is expected to ease transportation challenges and contribute to the city's overall infrastructure development. The initiation of work on the Swargate-Katraj underground extension aligns with the broader vision of creating a comprehensive and efficient public transportation system in Pune.

The floating of tenders signals the beginning of the construction phase, involving the selection of contractors for the project. The underground extension is anticipated to provide a seamless and convenient mode of transportation for residents and further position Pune as a city with modern and robust urban infrastructure.
