Bhopal: Metro On Track For October Debut, CM Mohan Yadav Takes Test Ride
Last Updated: The Bhopal Metro will operate at speeds of 40–60 kmph, with a design speed of 90 kmph. Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav inspected the under-construction Bhopal Metro on Sunday and expressed hope that the priority corridor from Subhash Nagar to AIIMS will become operational by October this year. Yadav took a test ride on a three-coach metro train from Subhash Nagar station to AIIMS and from AIIMS to Rani Kamalapati station. He reviewed onboard features and facilities. 'The Bhopal metro project is progressing rapidly. A few incomplete works will be completed within one and a half to two months. The government is working swiftly to give a gift of metro train service to people by October," he told reporters while pointing out that metro train service in Indore has received a positive response. He said the test run of the Bhopal metro is underway, and the Research Designs and Standards Organisation (RDSO) has completed the inspection. 'The Commissioner of Metro Rail Safety (CMRS) will soon inspect the metro works. Once the CMRS gives clearance, the priority corridor of the Bhopal Metro will be opened for public transport," he added. Yadav stated that the Bhopal metro project is being developed at an estimated cost of Rs 6,941.40 crore. The priority corridor from Subhash Nagar to AIIMS is being built at a cost of approximately Rs 2,225 crore and is nearing completion. 'Our target is to start metro operations on this priority corridor by October 2025. The roadmap aims to fully operationalise both corridors- orange and blue lines- before 2030," he said. Yadav said the design speed of the Bhopal Metro is 90 kmph, with an operational speed of 40 to 60 kmph. A total of 27 state-of-the-art metro train sets have been planned for the metro project, out of which seven have already arrived in the state capital. The metro will not only ensure convenient travel but also contribute effectively to environmental protection and pollution control, he added. Sharing updates on the Indore metro, Yadav said the government aims to start the full section from Super Corridor to Malviya Nagar (Radisson) intersection by the end of this year. Under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the state government is moving quickly to enhance civic amenities, the chief minister added. view comments First Published: July 28, 2025, 08:09 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Bengaluru: Namma Metro Yellow Line Set For August Debut, What To Expect?
Last Updated: With 16 stations and big ridership hopes, Namma Metro's Yellow Line aims to change how Bengaluru moves. The much-awaited 19.15-km-long Yellow Line of Namma Metro is likely to open by August 2025, bringing some much-needed relief to Bengaluru's busy roads. The route connects RV Road to Bommasandra with 16 stations in total. Officials are aiming to open all 16 stations at once, though they may begin with just seven key stops depending on readiness. How Many Trains Will Run Initially? At launch, only three trains will operate on the line. These will run from 5 am to 11 pm, with a train available every 20–25 minutes, completing 30–40 round trips per day. Each end-to-end trip will take roughly 80 minutes. As per Times Now News, if only seven stations are opened, the frequency may increase to handle passenger load more efficiently. What Are the Ridership and Revenue Expectations? Despite the soft launch, authorities expect a promising start. Daily ridership is projected to be around 25,000 in the beginning, with daily earnings estimated between Rs 10–15 lakh. Once all 15 trains are operational by next year, ridership could jump to 2 lakh per day, generating nearly Rs 60 lakh in revenue. To manage the crowd, only select entrances at some stations might open initially. Meanwhile, full staff, security, and operational teams will be on duty from day one. A fourth train is expected by August 10, but it requires two weeks of testing. If it arrives after the line opens, testing will be done at night, possibly causing delays. What's Next? The CMRS (Commissioner of Metro Railway Safety) began inspecting the Yellow Line earlier this week. Their report is due within days. Once BMRCL clears all safety checks, the final green signal will be given to kick-start services. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

CMRS begins inspection of Metro Yellow Line; final nod expected soon
BENGALURU: The Commissioner of Metro Rail Safety (CMRS) began inspecting the long-awaited Yellow Line of Namma Metro, which stretches 19.15 km from RV Road to Bommasandra, on Tuesday. The inspection follows the receipt of the Independent Safety Assessment (ISA) report by Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL), marking a key milestone before commissioning. On the first day, the CMRS covered Reach 5 and completed a fourth of the inspection. BMRCL Chief Public Relations Officer Yashwant Chavan said, 'The inspection will be completed in the next 3-4 days,' adding that once the CMRS clears the line, final authorisation for passenger services will be granted. When asked about which stations would become operational, he said, 'That will be decided after the CMRS gives its authorisation report.' The CMRS inspection is the final step before the Yellow Line becomes operational, bringing the long-delayed project closer to reality. Originally set for completion in 2021, the project has faced multiple delays over the years. Commenting on the delay, Bengaluru Central MP PC Mohan said, 'CMRS inspection of the Yellow Line began on Tuesday, three years after BMRCL missed its 2021 deadline. With 16 stations from RV Road to Bommasandra, it is crucial for ORR commuters. But 10 MDs in 22 years slowed progress. Namma Metro deserves steady hands, not shifting chairs.' BMRCL holds stakeholder meetings for Phase 3 Metro The BMRCL has been conducting environmental stakeholder consultations for its proposed Phase-3 Metro and Double Decker Project, covering Corridor I (JP Nagar 4th Phase to Kempapura Cross) and Corridor II (Hosahalli to Kadabagere Cross) since Monday. In the meetings, officials confirmed that 6,700 trees would be affected by the project, revised from the earlier estimate of around 11,000, following on-ground inspection.
