Bangalore Namma Metro 2016 – Launch, TimeTable, Fare, Route Map, Stations, Smart Card

Metro has become quite a life line for Delhi today and has always been one for Kolkata. Bengaluru has been managing with a semi-operational Metro for quite a while now. Its called Namma Metro and things are about to change in 2016 with the launch of the full purple line via Majestic.

After the Vayu Vajra Bus Service for Kempegowda Airport, finally Bengaluru can say they have a metro service that connects the city!

Namma Metro Launch

Bangalore’s metro rail service, Namma Metro, after months of wait was launched on 20th Oct’2011 at 4pm. This launch had been delayed for a long time keeping mind several issues with government approvals. I would have found it funny if anyone was really hoping that the service will be launched on time when the plan was being draft. The launch will make the Route under reach 1 operational which included 6 stations i.e. M.G. Road to Byappanahalli.

It took us 5 more years to launch more phases and finally May’2016 marks the most important phase launch which will connect Mysore Road till Baiyappanahalli which finally marks the arrival of Metro in the city. With this launch, the underground tunnels are operational and metro connects the central hub of the Bangalore – Majestic. In the first 2 days of launch, namma metro has already been packed and it would be interesting to see if this mode of transportation gets a green signal over the litmus test. Pricing wise its already the most economical mode of transportation with prices starting at Rs. 10 and going upto Rs.40 for a ride across the stretch.

Namma Metro Timings

The timings of Namma Metro is supposed to be from 6a.m. to 10p.m. with a frequency of 10-15mins depending on the time you opt to travel. The train will be running at a maximum speed of 80km/hr. In case you are not familiar with Bangalore and wondering what does Namma Metro stand for, then well “Namma” in Kannada (language of Karnataka) means OUR. So the name stands for “Our Metro”.

Reach 1 (Baiyappanahalli to M G Road)

Trains

  • Run from 6 am in the morning to 10 pm in the night
  • Run at a frequency of 15 minutes from 6 am to 8 am in the morning and 8 pm to 10 pm in night and with frequency of 10 minutes from 8 am to 8 pm

Namma Metro Smart Card or Travel Card Types

Namma Metro Travel Card or Contact-less Smart Cards(CSC) has been introduced to make daily commuting easier and cheaper. There are different types of tickets that can be availed according to the official site:

Stored  Value Ticket (Brand Name : VARSHIK) This is most popular and common form of ticket. The commuter can store any value of currency(Maximum Rs.1500) on this ticket. The card is shown at the entry gate of a station to enter, then again at exit gate to exit. During exit, the fare value is deducted from the card. The card can be topped-up/recharged with any value in multiples of Rs. 50. whenever required. The validity of stored value is 1 year from the last top-up done on it.

Trip Ticket (Brand Name : SANCHAR) A regular commuter travelling between two fixed points can purchase advance trips viz., 10, 40, 50 or 100 trips and load them on card. On every trip made on Metro between those fixed points one trip is decremented from the total trip counts stored on card.  Trip ticket offers more discount but less validity than Stored Value Ticket.

Metro-Bus Ticket (Brand Name : SARAL & SARAAG) A commuter who wishes to travel unlimited throught the day on BMTC Bus and Metro can load this Metro-Bus Day pass on the card.

The value can be added to the travel card at any Metro Station presently; through Airtel Retail Outlets,  State Bank of India ATMS, net Banking for SBI Account holders. You can also buy the cards online via this link.

Multiple cards can be stored in the card:

• A Smart card can hold any or all three types of ticket i.e Varshik, Sanchar and MBT.

• During travel the product which results in minimum fare shall be used by the AFC system at exit. Thus if journey is performed with all three tickets loaded only MBT will be used by system, the remaining two tickets remain untouched.

• If only Varshik and Sanchar are loaded on card then if journey is performed more or less than the fare zone for which trips are loaded, then only Varshik ticket will be used, trip will not be consumed.

• Varshik ticket comes default with every card.

• Only one type of trip ticket can be loaded on card for example either Sanchar 10 or Sanchar 40 can be loaded, but not both.

Namma Metro Fare

The minimum fare for a general ticket is Rs.10 which goes upto Rs.15 depending upon your destination. The fare can be further reduced by the use of CSCs as per the chart mentioned below.

Namma Metro Stations Info

The various stations under Phase 1 and the classification as per Reach is mentioned below. You can also refer to the route map for further clarity.

The Reach 1 of the phase 1 is expected to make commuting easier by connecting Byappanahalli to M.G Road. The Ulsoor and SV Road station in this reach would come at a cost of Rs.75.77 crores. The cost CMH Road and Byappanahalli station would be around Rs.92.8 crores. Trinity circle and MG Road cost comes to be around Rs.87.22 crores. Hence the main six stations of the reach 1 are Ulsoor, SV road, CMH road, Byappanahalli, M.G road and Trinity Circle.

The Reach 2 of the phase 1 would link Magadi road to Mysore road. This reach is also supposed to have six stations namely Tollgate, Hosahalli, Vijayanagar, Mysore Road terminal, Deepanjali Nagar and Mysore Road.

The Reach 3 of the phase 1 would connect Swastik to Peenya and is expected to get completed by November 2011. The main stations of the reach 3 are Malleswaram and Rajajinagar.

The Reach 4 of the phase 1 would connect K.R Market to R.V Road and is expected to meet its deadline of December 2011. The reach 4 is supposed to have five stations namely South End, Lal Bagh, K.R Station, RV road and Jayanagar.

Though not part of the plan yet, I would like to see Namma Metro connecting to Kempegowda Airport. Though the Vayu Vajra service is already doing great, having metro connectivity will be a game changer.

      1. Hi Team,

        Can you please tell me when exactly the metro starts from Puttenahalli to Nagasandra? Awaiting for the services it would be helpful if it starts immediately.. Could you please help me replying ..

  4. Has BMTC started any from Kanakpura road, Merton cash and carry on Kanakpura road to Mysore Road metro station ?
    What the authorities are doing for similar buses from Banashankari to the above metro station ?
    When Kanakpura road metro to majestic metro services are likely to be introduced?

    1. Hey bhaskar, don’t know what the official status is but here is my understanding –

      There are regular buses till Banashankari bus stand from where a lot of buses are connected for various locations including airport.

      Not sure

  5. Is it possible to take metro from mg road metro to Mahalakshmi metro station? Because, I’m confused with green and purple line? Mg road metro is purple line and mahalaksmi metro is green line?

      1. travelling from MG road to Mahalakshmi layout is not just one switch. there is no metro from Majestic to Mahalakshmi, its only from Mantri square to Mahalakshmi, so we need to follow below route
        1. Metro from MG road to Majestic
        2. Bus from Majestic(hopefully dedicated) to Mantri
        3. Metro from Mantri to Mahalakshmi

        Hope i am correct.
