Bengaluru will get four more metro lines by November, Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar said after a maiden review of the Namma Metro project on Tuesday.
Shivakumar, who is also the Bengaluru development minister, visited the offices of Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) and brainstormed with senior officials about expediting metro work, ramping up non-fare revenue and opening new lines.
The 2.1-km Baiyappanahalli-KR Pura line, a missing link in the Chellaghatta-Whitefield Purple Line, will open in July. The 1.9-km Kengeri-Chellaghatta line will be ready in August or September. The 3-km Nagasandra-Madavara line, which has been under construction since 2017, will be available to the public in September or October.
