Scheduled to be ready by 2024, Agra Metro will be welcomed by city’s residents and tourists alike. It was last month that Union Cabinet gave the green light for Agra Metro Rail project, which is estimated to cost Rs 8,415.63 crore and take five years to execute (March 2024 is the scheduled timeline). According to detailed project report (DPR) approved by the Cabinet, the project comprises two corridors, Corridor 1 would have 6 elevated and 7 underground stations. Corridor 2 would be completely elevated, having 14 stations. While the Union and state governments would each provide 20 per cent equity, amounting to Rs 1466.26 crore, for the project, the rest of money would be raised through bilateral or multilateral loans.
