Bangalore Namma Metro enthusiasts, especially travelers from the IT sector, hold on to your horses. Namma Metro’s Yellow Line, which has for so long been viewed as a ‘metro for the people,’ is now a fully functioning stretch with the PM inaugurating it for the entire populace to use. The line is the last stretch of the metro to be opened in time for the holidays.What Stations Are Covered on the Yellow Line?Stretching 19.15 km in total, the Yellow Line commencing from RV to Bommasandra, will run through some of the busiest intersections in Bommanahalli. This section has 16 distinct stations and is the following list:1. RV Road2. Ragi Gudda3. Jayadeva Hospital4. BTM Layout5. Central silk board6. Bommanahalli7. Hongasandra8. Kudlu Gate9. Singasandra10. Hosa Road11. Beretena Agrahara12. Electronic City13. Infosys Foundation Konappana Agrahara14. Huskur Road15. Hebbagodi16. BommasandraThis completion is said to be the key in finally unclogging some traffic stranglers in the metro, with the line directly going through the Central Silk Board Junction as well as the entire stretch Bommanahalli.Updated Timings and FrequencyAs the BMRCL announced on the 7 November 21, the new Yellow Line stations will be opening from 5am to 23 with the old lines extending to 7. On initial deployment, the stations will have 3 driverless trains stationed and running in intervals of 25 minutes.How Much Does a Ticket Cost?Riding the Yellow Line has its perks – for one, the fares are quite low, starting at just ₹10 for short hops and going up to a maximum of ₹90 for the full journey. This pricing strategy has been implemented to help ease traffic congestion, as it incentivizes commuters to leave their cars at home and use the metro instead.Interconnected City, Big InvestmentIn the future, the Yellow Line is expected to connect with the Pink and Blue Metro lines, transforming Jayadeva Hospital and Central Silk Board into major interchange hubs. The Silk Board station is also set to gain significant importance with the Blue Line, which will extend all the way to the Bengaluru International Airport.The Yellow Line project has been built at a cost of ₹5,057 crore. Along with the launch today, Prime Minister Modi will also be laying the foundation stone for Namma Metro’s Phase 3, which is yet another high impact addition to the Bangalore urban infrastructure.
