Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated Pune Metro's Line 3 (Pink Line) and laid the foundation stone for four new metro corridors under Phase II, involving a total investment of around Rs 21,800 crore. The 23-km-long Pink Line, built at a cost of over Rs 8,300 crore, will connect Maan to the District Court Metro station, providing direct metro connectivity between the Hinjewadi IT hub and Shivajinagar. The new line is expected to improve the daily commute for thousands of IT professionals, ease traffic congestion and reduce dependence on private vehicles. The phase will comprise four corridors - Lines 2A, 2B, 4 and 4A - covering key residential, commercial and IT hubs across the city.
Stressing that strengthening local metro connectivity is set to provide fresh momentum to Pune's development, PM Modi said the city is shaping the new energy of a 'Viksit Bharat'.
