An interesting update to the Bangalore metro is that, their Namma Metro line is extending beyond its state border Karnataka and entering into the state of Tamil Nadu and will connect the first town in the state from their side, that is Hosur. Basically the line right now ends at Bommasandra, and it's planned to extend upto Hosur, which is roughly 20kms away. Many residents live in the both these places/states and move between borders each day to get to work and do other stuff. It's a heavy corridor. The Karnataka government has approved the plan to extend the line and has asked the Tamil Nadu government for approval now.

In the future Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Bengaluru will all have 300+ km of metro. Also there are plans to upgrade Mumbai sub urban network to ETCS level 2. Delhi Master Plan 2041 also includes upgradation of Delhi Ring and sub urban Railway and 5 more RRTS lines. Indian Railways has also made plans to quadruple all the major routes to run more sub urban services in other cities. Bengaluru is building sub urban network from scratch. IR also plans to run RRTS on upgraded legacy tracks. Nagpur Broad Gauge Metro is one such pilot project. Also in the 750V DC part I think you missed the Kanpur Metro that opened a few months ago. It completed construction in just over 2 years. Looking forward to the Delhi Metro explained video. There's a lot going on in India's Transit Space and it's very exciting.

Pune metro is going to be one of the biggest after the merge of 23 villages making it larger than the area of Mumbai. Pune already has ton of electric buses which will integrate with metro system and one card will work on metro and buses. Pune already has the highest rooftop solar installations in India and since 4 years Pune and Mumbai and also connected with fully Electric buses and recently more cities and connecting with Pune through electric buses. Compound all this and you have the 3rd largest Metropolitan area of India, the PMR truly achieveing carbon free future.

@Your Father no it's still The IAF base but the airport has been upgraded and modernized a bit, they are building a multi level parking just outside. The airport though small does serve the domestic flights well, though a major city like Pune needs a bigger better airport. The runway used is shared with IAF but the airport has seperate building and facilities.

Hey Reece, love your videos. I would love to see your thoughts on the Chennai metro before the Mumbai one. Mumbai has currently only a couple of lines operational, which isn’t very useful as it covers only a horizontal stretch of land in an extremely longitudinal city. There are other lines being constructed but they’re not much farther along in progress. The Chennai metro on the other hand loops around the city and has excellent coverage to downtown Chennai’s busy areas and connectivity to its bus terminal, long distance rail stations and airport. The underground stations are pure works of art, and they’re much farther along in construction of newer lines which will be serving other parts of the city not yet connected to the metro system.

As someone from Kolkata, it's sad to see a metro system that has lagged behind increasingly over the years, right from its inception, and from factors mostly to do with politics and bureaucracy. The tram system is another topic of discussion and arguably, a way sadder affair. I just wish this city with amazing cultural heritage catches on with better, more efficient and extensive transit systems across the world.

The very first RRTS line to be opened in 2023 Regional public transit system: labeled as "Vande Metro" in India. Similar to the Go in Toronto. Proposed for all major cities to cover distances less than 100 km Governments do make a difference. When the present leadership took office 9 years ago, India had 2 metro systems

hello friend, a very important aspect about Mumbai metro (that you didnt cover/didnt find during your research) is that its built to supplement its existing humongous local train system. The blue line that you showed basically acts like a bridge between two existng (somewhat) parrallel local train lines. You dont even have to leave the station. You just get off the local, get on the overbridge and viola you have the metro. The metro is designed to supplement the public transport system of the city, and honestly its actually so good it deserves a video of its own!

And it being controlled by the central govt has seen its construction being completed without many obstacles for 2 decades now. A lot of systems in other cities are more gimmicky in their present state failing to serve a large population of the city. Hopefully it changes soon, India needs to free its cities off the massive traffic influx they suffer from.

It would have been nice to have a metro to get around then! Although I had cultural experiences then I probably wouldn’t find then. Things are changing fast. There was no modernity of any kind then.
