India’s cleanest city, Indore, is set to take a significant leap toward modern urban mobility as Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will virtually inaugurate passenger services on the Super Priority Corridor of the Indore Metro on Saturday, May 31, 2025, from Bhopal.
This newly completed 6-kilometer stretch, part of the Yellow Line’s Super Priority Corridor, features five stations: Gandhinagar Station, Super Corridor 6 Station, Super Corridor 5 Station, Super Corridor 4 Station, and Super Corridor 3 Station. The corridor is expected to provide a major boost to public transport by easing traffic congestion, reducing pollution, and offering a fast, safe, and comfortable travel option for city residents.
Officials have emphasized that the Super Priority Corridor is not only a critical technical milestone but also a powerful symbol of Indore’s stride toward modernization and sustainable urban development.
The Indore Metro Project, spanning 31.32 kilometers, includes 22.62 kilometers of elevated tracks and 8.7 kilometers of underground tracks, with a total of 28 stations along the Yellow Line.
Designed to make urban commuting faster, cleaner, and more convenient, the project is being developed at an estimated cost of ?7,500 crore.
The inaugurated 6-kilometer section, completed at a cost of ?1,520 crore, marks the beginning of passenger services and showcases the first operational phase of the ambitious metro network.
Indore’s metro initiative stands as a transformative step in building a future-ready, eco-conscious city, while aligning with national goals of sustainable infrastructure and smart urban planning.
