Kolkata Metro to Extend Service on New Garia to Airport Corridor

Kolkata Metro is gearing up to extend its metro service along the New Garia to Airport corridor, aiming to improve connectivity and reduce travel time for commuters. The expansion project is expected to cater to the increasing demand for efficient urban transportation solutions in Kolkata.

The extension will cover additional stretches beyond the current metro line, linking New Garia in the southern part of Kolkata to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport in the northern outskirts. This initiative is poised to benefit residents, tourists, and commuters by providing a seamless and convenient mode of travel across the city.

The extended metro service is anticipated to alleviate traffic congestion on key arterial roads and offer a sustainable alternative to private vehicles. It aligns with Kolkata's efforts to promote eco-friendly transportation infrastructure and enhance urban mobility for its growing population.

The Kolkata Metro Rail Corporation (KMRC) is actively pursuing approvals and planning for the extension project, which includes detailed assessments of technical feasibility and environmental impact. Once operational, the extended metro line is expected to significantly enhance connectivity between residential areas, business districts, and transportation hubs.

Stakeholders look forward to the positive impacts of the metro extension, including improved air quality, reduced commute times, and enhanced overall quality of life for residents in Kolkata. The project underscores Kolkata's commitment to modernising public transportation and fostering sustainable urban development in the region.
