Visakhapatnam, the coastal city that is currently the administrative capital of Andhra Pradesh, may soon acquire 76.9 km of metro train lines.
The AP Metro Rail Corporation Ltd (AMRC) is producing a new Detailed Project Report (DPR) to accommodate Visakhapatnam’s growing population, and the Vizag Metro Rail Project is estimated to cost Rs 14,309 crore.
Vizag Metro would include 54 stations and two depots along three lines. Steel Plant to Bhogapuram Airport, Gurudwara to Old Post Office, and Thatichetlapalem to RK Beach are the three corridors.
AMRC managing director UJM Rao revealed this information, saying that the State government is eager to get the project up and running as soon as possible, and that construction would most likely begin this year.
