Hyderabad Metro
As of 15 Sep 2026, Hyderabad Metro is operational (since 29 Nov 2017). Latest news: 19 Oct 2026.
Hyderabad Metro is an operational metro system in Hyderabad, run by L&T Metro Rail Hyderabad (HMRL). It covers 69 km, with fares from ₹10 to ₹60 and trains operating 06:00 to 23:00 roughly every 4 minutes. Its route map, stations, fares and timings are below.
Hyderabad Metro is the rapid transit system serving Telangana’s capital, built on one of the largest public-private metro projects anywhere in the world. Operated by L&T Metro Rail Hyderabad, it opened in 2017 and runs across the city on three elevated corridors that carry a steady share of Hyderabad’s daily commute.
The network
The system spans about 69 km on three corridors, the Red Line, the Blue Line and the Green Line, meeting at interchange stations in the central city. Every corridor runs elevated, threading above some of Hyderabad’s busiest roads, and the stations were built with large commercial developments attached to help fund the project. The design leans heavily on transit-oriented development along the alignment.
Operator and what comes next
L&T Metro Rail Hyderabad runs the system under a public-private partnership with the state government. Attention has now turned to Phase 2, a set of extensions and new corridors, including a planned link toward Rajiv Gandhi International Airport. Approvals, tenders and alignment decisions keep moving as the next phase takes shape.

Hyderabad Metro’s three operational lines cover 69.2 km with 57 stations. Ameerpet links the Red and Blue lines, MG Bus Station links the Red and Green lines, and JBS Parade Ground (Green Line) is linked to Parade Ground (Blue Line).
