The proposed project will have three rail corridors. One will be from Annapurna to Sukhliya, the other from Niranjanpura to Bhawarkuwa, and the last one from Super Corridor MR 10 to Ring Road. I have a feeling that the Metro rail will be functional earlier than 2019 as the government have said that it would only take three years for the Metro to start functioning. The Metro rail in Indore will have 32 stations and it is estimated that two lakh people would use the Metro every day.
Yeah, I recently read a news article about the government bringing in a light metro train to Indore. The government have made plans of introducing the Metro rail to Indore and Bhopal in the next three years. The current proposal is to have a 32 km Metro rail which will cost around Rs. 7500 crore to build. Currently a detailed project report is being compiled for the project. I think this project will be a big boost to the public transport in Indore. Now, the only mode of public transport is by bus or auto. The operation of the Metro rail will only mostly start in 2019 and it doesn't look likely for it to start earlier than that.
