Taking note of public demand, Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) has decided to extend Namma Metro service hours. With effect from September 18, trains will be operated between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m. As per the revised schedule, the last trains will leave terminal stations at 9.30 p.m.
Until now, trains were running from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., but with more people reporting to offices, the metro rail corporation had been inundated with requests to revert to pre-COVID timings. Recently, a few members of Parliament, too, raised the issue.
