The much-awaited statutory inspection of the KR Pura-Baiyappanahalli metro line will be conducted on September 21, officials said. Although just 2.1 km long, the KR Pura-Baiyappanahalli stretch is of crucial importance on the Purple Line as it will help connect the tech hub of Whitefield with the CBD and the rest of the city. The 13.7-km KR Pura-Whitefield line is operational but cut off from the rest of the metro network.
BMRCL boss Anjum Parwez confirmed the new date for the inspection of the KR Pura-Baiyappanahalli line by the Commissioner of Metro Railway Safety (Southern Circle).
