Raipur to Get Light Metro, MoU Signed in Moscow

Raipur city is set to introduce a light metro train service after a key Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed in Moscow. The agreement marks a significant step toward enhancing urban transportation in the city, offering residents a modern and efficient commuting option.

The MoU, signed between officials from Raipur and their Russian counterparts, will pave the way for the planning and implementation of the light metro system. This initiative aims to address Raipur's growing transportation needs as the city's population expands and road traffic increases. Light metro systems are known for being cost-effective, quick to implement, and ideal for medium-sized cities.

The proposed metro system will likely follow international standards of safety, efficiency, and sustainability, making it a key part of Raipur?s future infrastructure development. The project is expected to ease the burden on the existing public transport system, reduce road congestion, and offer a cleaner alternative to fossil fuel-based vehicles.

This initiative aligns with the broader vision of transforming Raipur into a smart city with advanced urban mobility solutions. The project?s timeline, specific routes, and other operational details will be revealed once the detailed feasibility study is completed.
