Nagpur Metro Phase 2 Extends Orange and Aqua Lines
Nagpur Metro plans to build two new extensions.
One extension will take the Orange Line toward Kamptee and Kanhan.
The other will take the Aqua Line toward Hingna.
Together, they will add nearly 20 kilometers of metro routes.
The Kamptee-Kanhan stretch is planned to have 12 stations.
The Hingna stretch is planned to have seven stations.
Rahee Infratech Limited has offered the lowest bid for installing the tracks.
These extensions are intended to help more people reach Nagpur’s wider metro network.
Reach 1B will extend the Orange Line about 13 km from Kamptee toward Kanhan, with 12 proposed stations.
Reach 3A will extend the Aqua Line about 6.7 km from Lokmanya Nagar to Hingna, with seven proposed stations.
The two extensions together will cover nearly 20 km beyond Nagpur Metro’s Phase 1 corridors.
Rahee Infratech Limited was declared the lowest bidder for ballastless track work on both elevated stretches.
The track contract, dated September 23, 2026, is valued at approximately ₹209.04 crore.
