Pune Metro creates new ridership record, 36.56 lakh passengers used the services in August 2024
Pune, September 03, 2024: Pune Metro’s popularity is increasing day-by-day as more and more commuters are ditching the road to travel by metro to save time and money.
In August 2024, Pune Metro Rail witnessed a large increment in its ridership with 36,65,479 Punekars using its services with an average daily passenger count of 1,18,241. Recent rains have also contributed significantly to this promising number as many commuters wanted to avoid traffic jams, potholes and water logging on Pune’s roads.
Authorities have also announced the operationalization of Civil Court to Swargate stretch before Ganeshotsav. This will help citizens to visit various revered Ganpatis in the peth areas during the festival. This line will be the first in the city to pass below a river, traveling under the Mutha river bed between the Civil Court and Budhwar Peth stations.
