The Blue Line metro route is a major link aimed at connecting the southern most part of Bangalore from Central Silk Board all the way till the Kempegowda International Airport in Devanahalli Taluka, North Bangalore. This key metro line is being constructed in two phases – Phase 2A, which will link Silk Board all the way till KR Puram via a 19-km route, and Phase 2B will connect from KR Puram till the Bangalore International Airport over a 39-km stretch. The entire Blue Line Metro route will be almost 60 km long.
Now let us understand the reasons for the introduction of this metro route and when construction began, and more importantly, when it is expected to be completed. The Purva Henur Road luxury apartments which are located in a prime part of North Bangalore will benefit significantly from this expansion plan by BMRCL (Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited). This route is also called the ORR-Airport Metro Line because it runs through major parts of the eastern side of the Outer Ring Road.
The concept of this metro line is to give people the chance to travel via a single mode of transport all the way from the southern part of the city till the iconic Kempegowda International Airport. Under Phase 2B in particular, it will cover major work hubs of the city starting from KR Pura and extending through areas like Hennur, Nagavara, Hebbal and parallel to the NH 44 Bellary Road where you will also be connected to Jakkur, Doddajala and Yelahanka all of which are key commercial and residential hubs in North Bangalore.
Latest Airport Blue Line Metro Updates
The constriction of this expansive metro line began in two phases understandably with work in Phase 1A around Silkboard beginning way back in 2021, and the progress rate for the entire project is expected to be close to 60% as of now. Phase 2B, which is the longer and more expansive part of the Namma Metro project, began in 2022, and work is progressing rapidly.
A major portion of the 58-line metro will be elevated but around hubs like Yelahanka and the Bangalore Airport itself, there will be surface level stations. The Hennur Road apartments by Purva happen to be right along the Phase 2B route which starts from KR Puram in East Bangalore, so people living at these luxury apartments can enjoy even easier access to the airport as well as other tech hubs of the city like Hebbal and Yelahanka.
As per latest updates from the BMRCL, the construction of this Blue Line Airport metro is set to be fully operational by the end of 2027, which is well before the possession timeline for the Purva Hennur luxury apartments. So anyone considering buying an apartment here can feel assured knowing they will move into a project with complete infrastructure all around.
Impact on Purva Hennur Road Apartments
There is a reason why developers build projects at locations where they know metro reach will be good along with other connectivity options like upcoming roadways and infrastructure upgrades. On this note, the Hennur Main Road stretch is already well organized with excellent connectivity and social infrastructure such as schools, hospitals and several top work hubs. The Hennur-Bagalur Road along with ORR and NH 44 are the major routes that serve the commute needs of people here.
