Hongasandra (also known as Garvebhavi Palya) is an upcoming elevated metro station on the North-South corridor of the Yellow Line of Namma Metro in Bangalore, India.

As per latest reports, the Yellow Line is stated to be operational around December 2024 due to the upcoming Indian general election which will occur during April–May 2024 and lots of trial runs along with more trainsets are required for commencement of operations. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]

History

In December 2016, the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) issued a call for bids to construct the Hongasandra metro station along the 6.385 km Reach 5 – Package 2 section (Hosa Road - Bommanahalli) of the 18.825 km Yellow Line of Namma Metro. On 25 April 2017, ITD-ITD Cementation JV was selected as the lowest bidder for this stretch, with their bid closely aligning with the original cost estimates. [6] Consequently, the contract was successfully awarded to the company, which then commenced construction of the metro station in accordance with the agreements.
