Bengaluru: Namma Metro has started taking baby steps to build what could be Phase 4.
On Friday, Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) invited open bids from consulting agencies to study the feasibility of adding 118 km to the metro network (see table).
Companies fulfilling the eligibility criteria are required to submit the bids on March 27. The bids will be opened on the same day. The BMRCL will likely award the contract for the feasibility study by the third quarter of 2024. The contractor will have to prepare the study in six months, which could happen by late 2024 or early 2025.
