Ahmedabad: Metro Phase-2 to Gandhinagar Nears October 2025 Completion

Ahmedabad Metro’s Phase-2, the 28.26 km corridor linking Ahmedabad to Gandhinagar and GIFT City, is on schedule for completion by end of 2025, according to Gujarat Finance Minister Kanubhai Desai’s 2025 budget speech. 

Already, 20.8 km and 8 stations from Motera to Mahatma Mandir have been inaugurated, and the remaining stretch including stations up to Sector-1 and Sachivalay is operational from April 2025.

Phase-I, launched in 2019–2021, established a 40 km network with 31 stations. This expansion represents a strategic bridge between the capital and commercial hubs. It aims to streamline commuter journeys, reduce road congestion, and support the rapid economic integration of twin cities.

Earlier, the corridor was inaugurated by PM Modi in September 2024, and subsequent expansions in April 2025 further enhanced coverage. 

The government has allocated ₹2,730 crore for the metro projects, including progress on Surat Metro, highlighting commitment to rapid urban transit growth.

Ahmedabad’s expanding metro network is becoming a model for Tier-2 city integration, linking administration, industry, and urban living zones through efficient rail service.
