About Bengaluru Metro Routes
The Bengaluru Metro, officially known as Namma Metro, is a rapid transit system serving the city of Bengaluru (formerly Bangalore), India. The network consists of two main lines - the Purple Line and the Green Line - covering key areas of the city with convenient connections.
The Purple Line runs east-west from Whitefield to Challaghatta, covering major areas like Indiranagar, MG Road, and Majestic. The Green Line runs north-south from BIEC to Silk Institute, passing through Yeshwanthpur, Majestic, and Jayanagar. Both lines intersect at Kempegowda Station (Majestic), which serves as the central interchange point.
With trains running every 4-10 minutes, the Bengaluru Metro provides a reliable and efficient transportation option for commuters. The fare structure is distance-based, ranging from ₹10 for short trips to ₹90 for the longest journeys. Smart card users enjoy a 5% discount on all fares, with additional discounts during off-peak hours.
The route planner on this page helps you find the optimal path between any two stations on the network, including information on transfers, travel time, and fare. For frequent travelers, we recommend checking the popular routes section for quick access to common journeys.
