The Red Line or Hebbal-Sarjapura Line is a proposed metro rail line that will become part of Namma Metro's network in the city of Bangalore, Karnataka, India. Phase-3B of Namma Metro has been planned to become operational around the year 2030. [1][2]
Funding
[edit]Estimated at Rs 16,543 crore, including land acquisition charges, the 37-km line is outlined in the Comprehensive Mobility Plan 2020, this proposed metro line is expected to ease travel for public commuting to and from tech zones. [3] The alignment involves an elevated corridor near the IT corridor in Sarjapur, transitioning underground at Koramangala, traversing the central business district through tunnels, and emerging on Ballari Road with elevated stations at Ganganagar and Hebbal.
Stations
[edit]The Red Line (Hebbal-Sarjapura Line) is planned to have 28 stations. [4][5]
