Finally 58 Kms of Metro from Silk Board -KR Puram-Hebbal-Airport was approved on 20th April 2021 after delay of many years at the estimated cost of Rs 14000 Crore. we can expect this line to be ready after 6-7 years from now if every thing goes smooth. cost may escalate to 30000 Crore.
Looking at Metro stations locations & approach for Airport Metro line, basic detailed accessibility is badly missing considering Air Passenger &airport workers using. It will be mess considering ORR having heavy road traffic These may be ready in next 6-7yrs if things progress
Few of the stations locations given below
Silk Board Metro station & E-city Metro line apart with quite distance
Hebbal Metro station close to exiting BMTC Depot
Irrannapallya Metro station / Manytha Tech Park
Comments
Kodigehalli, Marathalli, Kogilu corss Metro station access
Marathahalli, Kodigehalli, Kogilu Cross, HSR Layout Metro stations : how commuters can reach or exit from these stations easily ??? BMRCL has work in details & required to acquire additional land for accessibility, Parking & bays for Buses, Taxi & Auto
Kogilu cross / Yelahanka ByPass Metro station
Will create more confusion & Traffic at Marathalli Metro station in the absence of Service Roads
HSR Layout Metro station.
Has BMRCL made provision to accomodate Bus / Taxi / auto Bays, Parking space, accessability to station easily ??? After all this line is planned for Airport Connectivity
