Bengaluru Metro Blue Line moves closer to airport connectivity: Train completes 6-km trial run from Byappanahalli to Doddanekundi on the 58-km corridor between Central Silk Board and Kempegowda International Airport
Bengaluru Development Minister Krishna Byre Gowda said on Tuesday that the trial run on the Blue Line Metro corridor is moving ahead. It is progressing from Byappanahalli towards KR Puram and Doddanekundi. This takes the project a step closer to mainline testing. He shared the update in a Deepavali…
Phase 2A is the first part of the Blue Line. It covers 19.75 km between Central Silk Board and KR Puram. The trial run has already moved to KR Puram, and then on to Doddanekundi. The post also said work is still going on near Central Silk Board, so this part is not fully ready yet.
Phase 2B is the longer part of the corridor. It spans 38.44 km from KR Puram to Kempegowda International Airport via Hebbal. Together with Phase 2A, it makes up the full 58.19 km line. The trial updates so far mention only Byappanahalli, KR Puram and Doddanekundi, so there is no news yet on the airport stretch.
