Bengaluru airport, BMRCL ink MoU for airport metro, railway halt station
Bengaluru Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) and Bangalore International Airport Limited (BIAL) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) Tuesday to establish the 4.95 km airport section of the Outer Ring Road (ORR)-Airport Metro at an estimated cost of Rs 800 Crores.
According to BIAL, this Metro connectivity to Bengaluru Airport, likely to be commissioned by December 2024, would provide a sustainable and efficient mode of transport to commuters from all parts of the city, facilitating the city to “realise its economic potential” and ease traffic congestion on the roads leading to the Airport.
