700 km of New Metro Lines Operational in 10 Years, Says Housing Minister

In the past decade, India has successfully operationalized approximately 700 kilometres of new metro lines, according to the Housing Minister. This milestone underscores the country's substantial investment in expanding urban transit infrastructure to meet the growing needs of its urban population.

The expansion of metro networks is a key component of India's strategy to improve public transportation, reduce traffic congestion, and enhance urban mobility. The minister emphasised that this achievement is a testament to the government's commitment to modernising city transport systems and promoting sustainable urban development.

The new metro lines span various cities, providing improved connectivity and accessibility for millions of commuters. The development of these lines is expected to ease traffic congestion, reduce pollution, and offer a reliable alternative to road transport.

The government plans to continue expanding metro networks, with several new projects in the pipeline aimed at further enhancing urban transport infrastructure. These initiatives are aligned with broader goals of urban renewal and sustainable development, reflecting a forward-looking approach to addressing the challenges of rapid urbanisation.

As cities continue to grow and evolve, the expansion of metro networks will play a crucial role in shaping the future of urban mobility and contributing to more efficient, environmentally friendly public transport solutions.
