Pune Metro Line 3 Records 50,000 Passengers on First Day of Operations
Pune Metro Line 3 recorded around 50,000 passenger movements on its first day of operations, with the District Court station seeing the highest footfall of approximately 25,000. The 23.2-km Hinjawadi-Shivajinagar corridor offers improved connectivity, including interchange with existing metro lines and access to Pune Railway Station. Officials expect ridership to grow as offices reopen post-festive break and plan to increase train frequency to every five minutes during peak hours and every eight minutes off-peak.
