Pune Metro Line 3 to be operational by March 2025

Pune Metro Line 3 connecting the IT hub of Hinjewadi with the central hub of Shivajinagar will be operational by March 2025. Tata Projects will undertake work on the entire 23-km stretch at the same time, instead of working on it in phases, said officials. Tata Projects Pune Metro head Alok Kapoor said, “The work will be completed in 40 months. We have already started work on the ground and most of the land is in our possession. We are planning to complete the project by March 2025.”

He added, “We are planning to start operations on the entire 23km stretch instead of operating metro partially. We are using coaches made in India.”

Another Tata Projects official said, “The work towards Hinjewadi side and near Balewadi sports stadium has started. The most critical section for carrying out work will be at Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU) chowk considering the heavy traffic. We have planned with local authorities to carry an integrated double-decker flyover. We have got approval and traffic diversion plan is also ready.”

Officials said the Maharashtra Metro Rail Corporation Limited (MahaMetro) and Tata Projects metro lines are integrated and they are supportive of each other. The mobility card for both metros would be the same. The government is thinking of launching a metro card which would be common in all cities.
