48 More Metro Coaches Reach Indore
**Indore Metro Phase-1 Expansion Gains Momentum**
Indore, Madhya Pradesh: Following the successful commencement of Metro operations on the 5.6-kilometre priority corridor, preparations are now in full swing for the second part of Phase-1 of the Indore Metro. The city is gearing up to make the entire Gandhi Nagar to Robot Square stretch, spanning 17 km, operational soon.
Extensive work is currently underway, including station construction, track laying, signalling, and other critical infrastructure developments. New Metro coaches have started arriving from Vadodara for the Indore-Bhopal Metro corridor. Indore is set to receive a total of 25 sets of Metro coaches, each comprising three coaches. So far, 16 sets have arrived, bringing the total number of coaches at the Indore depot to 48. An additional nine sets (27 coaches) are expected to arrive in the coming days.
Officials have confirmed that trial runs and preparations for full operational launch are already in progress. Madhya Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation’s Managing Director, KC Choudhary, is actively reviewing depot operations, which include technical stations, train management, control rooms, inspection, and repair systems.
Construction is also advancing on the 11-km Super Corridor-2 stretch from Malviya Nagar Square to the Super Corridor stations. Key station facilities such as escalators, lifts, entry-exit points, parking areas, ticket counters, and concourse levels are progressing well at several stations including Vijay Nagar, Bapat Square, Heera Nagar, Chandragupta Square, and Malviya Nagar.
A significant feature of the Metro expansion is the Gandhi Nagar to Airport section, which will run underground. Authorities have already started preparations for tunnel boring work from the Airport side, and the installation of large-scale Tunnel Boring Machines (TBMs) is imminent to commence the tunneling process.
With these developments, Indore is poised to enhance its urban transit infrastructure, providing faster, safer, and more efficient connectivity for its residents.
