Union Cabinet approves ₹9,858 crore Phase‑2 of Pune Metro — 31.6 km, 28 elevated stations — promising faster connectivity, reduced traffic and greener urban mobility in Pune.

Pune, 27 November 2025: Pune’s urban transport landscape is set for a major transformation as the Union Cabinet has approved Phase‑2 of the Pune Metro, which includes two new corridors spanning a total of 31.6 kilometres with 28 elevated stations. The project, estimated to cost around ₹9,858 crore, aims to improve connectivity between key residential, commercial, and IT hubs across the city. The new lines are expected to integrate seamlessly with existing and planned metro routes, offering residents a faster, safer, and more reliable alternative to road travel. With rapid urban growth and increasing traffic congestion, Phase‑2 promises to reduce commute times, decongest major arterial roads, and lower vehicular pollution, contributing to a greener urban environment. Officials say the corridors will enhance east‑west and north‑south connectivity, benefiting daily commuters, students, and office‑goers alike. While the approval marks a significant milestone, the success of the project will depend on efficient land acquisition, environmental clearances, timely construction, and integration with last‑mile connectivity options. Civic authorities and implementing agencies are expected to coordinate closely with local governments and public transport stakeholders to ensure smooth execution. If implemented effectively, the metro expansion could redefine daily commuting in Pune, offering a sustainable, high-capacity alternative to congested roads and supporting the city’s long-term urban mobility goals.
