Bengaluru Pink Line Metro opening date update: When will Namma Metro’s new line start operations?

Bengaluru’s much-awaited Pink Line Metro is expected to open for passengers in September 2026, but the exact inauguration date has not been announced yet. The 7.5-km elevated section between Kalena Agrahara and Tavarekere is ready for operations, according to officials, with the project awaiting the remaining statutory clearances and confirmation of an inauguration date from the Centre.

The opening will give commuters in south Bengaluru another Metro option, particularly those travelling along the busy Bannerghatta Road corridor. Once this section starts commercial services, the city’s Metro network will cross the 100-km mark.
