Bengaluru Metro Yellow Line trains will operate daily from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. and are expected to significantly benefit thousands of commuters.
The fares on this metro route will follow standard pricing, which includes a one-way ticket cost between Rs 10 and Rs 90, depending on the distance travelled.
Bengaluru Yellow Line Metro Key Stations And Interchange
Key stations on the new Yellow Line metro include Electronics City, Infosys Foundation, Huskuru Road, Delta Electronics Bommasandra, RV Road, Jayadeva and Central Silk Board.
