Bellandur is an important upcoming elevated metro station on the North-South corridor of the Blue Line[1] of Namma Metro in Bangalore, India. This metro station serves mainly the Bellandur suburban area, which comprises Bellandur Lake in addition to many technology firms such as Intel, RMZ Ecoworld and Embassy TechVillage. This metro station is slated to become operational around June 2026.[2][3][4][5]

History

[edit]

In December 2019, the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) invited bids for the construction of the Bellandur metro station, part of the 9.859 km Reach 2A – Package 1 section (Central Silk Board - Kodibeesanahalli) of the 18.236 km Blue Line of Namma Metro. On 13 October 2020, Afcons Infrastructure was chosen as the lowest bidder for this segment, with their proposal closely matching the initial cost estimates. [6] As a result, the contract was awarded to the company, which led to the beginning of the construction works of this metro station as per the agreed terms.
