Godrej Properties Bets Big on Land Backed by Robust FinancialsMaharashtra Govt Approves Two New Metro Stations on Swargate Katraj Corridor
The Maharashtra government has authorised the addition of two new underground stations—Bibwewadi and Balaji Nagar—to the planned Swargate–Katraj metro extension, which is a major development for Pune's metro network.
The decision was finalised during a Cabinet Committee on Infrastructure meeting chaired by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, with Deputy CM Ajit Pawar and Urban Development Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule in attendance.
Two Key Additions
The 5.46 km underground stretch, known as Line-1B of the Purple Line, was earlier planned with three stations: Market Yard, Padmavati, and Katraj. With strong public demand for better access along the route, the state government has now cleared the proposal for Balaji Nagar (near Bharati Vidyapeeth) and Bibwewadi stations.
Construction Timeline
Though the ground-breaking ceremony for the Swargate–Katraj extension was held in September 2024, actual construction work has been delayed due to retendering. The corridor is expected to be completed within four years of starting, and officials now anticipate contracts to be finalised by October 2025, after the monsoon.
Why It Matters
Traffic congestion along the Satara Road corridor will be reduced once the extension is operational, offering smooth connectivity from central Pune to the southern hub of Katraj. The two newly approved stations are expected to benefit thousands of daily commuters, including students, office-goers, and residents in Bibwewadi and Balaji Nagar.
