Hyderabad Metro — commuter guide
Hyderabad Metro Network
Hyderabad Metro, operated by L&T Metro Rail Hyderabad Ltd. under a public-private partnership, is the largest metro built under PPP mode in the world. The network spans three fully elevated lines: Red Line (Miyapur–LB Nagar, 29 km, 27 stations), Blue Line (Nagole–Raidurg, 29 km, 23 stations), and Green Line (JBS Parade Ground–MGBS, 11 km, 9 stations). Ameerpet is the central interchange where the Red and Blue Lines cross, and MGBS is where the Red and Green Lines converge.
Key areas connected
HITEC City and Raidurg (western IT and financial district on Blue Line), Ameerpet (central coaching and commercial hub), Punjagutta (commercial avenue, Red Line), Begumpet (corporate offices, Blue Line), Secunderabad (JBS, Blue Line northern terminal), MGBS (Mahatma Gandhi Bus Station, Red and Green Lines), Dilsukhnagar and LB Nagar (south-east residential, Red Line), Miyapur (north-west residential, Red Line terminal), Nagole (eastern terminal, Blue Line).
Railway and bus connectivity
Secunderabad East Metro Station provides a pedestrian footbridge connection to Secunderabad Junction Railway Station on the Blue Line. MGBS Metro Station is constructed directly adjacent to the Mahatma Gandhi Bus Station — the largest interstate bus terminus in South India — making it the primary intermodal node for passengers arriving by bus from other Telangana districts. Hyderabad Deccan (Nampally) Railway Station is accessible from Nampally Metro Station on the Red Line.
Key interchange stations
Ameerpet is the most critical interchange in the Hyderabad Metro network — Red and Blue Lines cross here on a double-decker elevated structure. The station design includes separate upper and lower concourse levels for each line, with escalators and lifts between levels. MGBS is where the Red and Green Lines terminate and share a common concourse, making it the southern anchor for cross-line journeys from Secunderabad and the eastern residential corridors.
