The Telangana government has sanctioned ?24,269 crore for the ambitious Phase II expansion of the Hyderabad Metro, aiming to significantly improve connectivity across the city’s growing urban landscape. Phase II will add 63 kilometers to the existing network, covering new corridors such as BHEL-Lakdikapul and Jubilee Bus Station-ECIL, alongside other critical routes. The state plans to prioritize integration with other public transport systems, such as the upcoming Regional Ring Road, to create a cohesive transit system. Hyderabad Metro Rail Limited (HMRL) will oversee the project, with the state looking to complete it within the next five years. By extending the metro network, Telangana aims to reduce road congestion, lower pollution levels, and improve urban mobility for millions of residents. This major financial commitment reflects the government’s commitment to developing sustainable and efficient infrastructure solutions that cater to the city’s rapid urban expansion.
