Location
PCMC Bhavan metro station

PCMC Bhavan is an elevated metro station serving as the northern terminal of Purple Line of Pune Metro in Pimpri Chinchwad, India. The station was opened on 6 March 2022 as an inauguration of Pune Metro. [2] From March 2022 to July 2023, the Purple Line operated between PCMC Bhavan and Phugewadi, [3] but from 1 August 2023 the section between Phugewadi and Civil Court metro station came into use, so trains ran from PCMC Bhavan to Civil Court. [4] On 29 September 2024, the launch of Pune Metro Phase I was completed and the Purple Line was fully operational from PCMC to Swargate. [5] An extension has been planned which will move PCMC station's terminal status and extend the line to Nigdi. [6]
