Bengaluru Metro to have 16 interchange stations along with Majestic

Apart from Nadaprabhu Kempegowda Interchange station in Majestic, the Bengaluru Metro will have 16 interchange metro stations in Bengaluru.

Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) officials said that in the upcoming Phase 2 and Phase 3 projects, there will be 16 interchange stations which will connect to various metro lines of the Namma Metro.

Currently, the Majestic interchange is the sole interchange metro station in the Namma Metro network, connecting the Purple and Green lines in the city. Around 50,000 passengers use this interchange station daily to switch between the Green and Purple lines. “The main aim of planning 16 interchange metro stations is to ensure that commuters can easily travel on any metro line, thereby increasing passenger reliance on the metro for their daily commute. In the coming years, these interchange stations will connect the Purple, Green, Yellow, Pink, and Blue lines of the metro,” officials added.
