The Patna Metro January launch is bringing good news for people in Bihar. The metro will start running from ISBT to Malahi Pakadi soon. The Patna Metro January launch will help thousands of daily travelers move quickly and safely.
Construction on this 6.107-km stretch is almost complete. Track laying and electrical work reached Malahi Pakadi. Meanwhile, the section between ISBT and Bhoothnath has been active since early October. Officials expect all finishing work to end by December.
However, the inauguration will take place in the third week of January because the Kharmaas season begins in mid-December. This delay is temporary, and services will begin right after the festival period.
The metro will skip the Khemnichak station for now. Land issues slowed its construction, and workers need nearly six more months to finish it. Other stations, such as Bhoothnath, Zero Mile, and ISBT, are moving ahead quickly. Wires, poles, and platforms are coming up at a fast pace.
The fare from ISBT to Malahi Pakadi will be ₹30. For up to three kilometers, the fare stays at ₹15. For three to six kilometers, it is ₹30. This new line will reduce travel time, make city movement smoother, and offer a cleaner travel experience.
