Jaipur Metro Information
On its way to becoming India’s sixth metro system, the Jaipur Metro has achieved some truly remarkable milestones. Construction took just 4 years and the metro became operational on 3 June 2015. Not only is it considered one of the fastest metro networks built in India, it is also the first metro to run on a double-deck elevated road. Owned and operated by the Jaipur Metro Rail Corporation (JMRC), it currently has only 1 line in operation, serving 9 stations. This comparatively small metro, about 9 km long, has big plans for expansion. If all goes according to plan, the metro will extend over 30 km, along 2 lines, serving a total of 31 stations.
