Hyderabad Metro Rail (HMR) has made a decision to build a new metro station in Nagole, close to the existing ‘Blue Line’ terminal station, as part of the proposed metro link to the international airport at Shamshabad. The two stations will be connected with a wide skywalk at the concourse level.
A team of metro officials led by MD NVS Reddy, while inspecting the 14-km Nagole-Chandrayangutta stretch of the Airport Metro on Saturday, decided to move the new alignment 10 mtrs. further to the left along the Musi river to avoid shifting of huge water main pipelines, and high-tension power lines. Thus, longer spans will be used to cross the Musi to facilitate the proposed river rejuvenation work. An additional metro station is being planned immediately after crossing the river to provide connectivity to the road coming from Kottapet Junction, to help the residents of nearby colonies.
The proposed Nagole RTO station will be built near Alkapuri Junction (Lucky Restaurant) to connect to the Outer Ring Road (ORR). Another metro station will come up towards the right side of the Kamineni Hospital station. The other proposed stations at Mythri Nagar, Karmanghat, Champapet Road Junction, Owaisi Hospital, DRDO, Hafeez Baba Nagar, will be close to the junction points to cater to the requirements of nearby areas.
