Pune Metro Expands Fleet for New Routes With New Trains
Pune Metro is getting 15 new trains to help more people travel.
These trains will have a total of 45 new coaches, increasing the number of seats available.
This expansion is because two new metro lines are being built.
Right now, trains come every 7 minutes, but the goal is to have them come every 3-5 minutes during busy times.
This should make it easier and faster for people to get around.
Pune Metro is expanding its fleet with 15 new trains.
The new trains will add 45 coaches to the existing fleet.
The expansion supports two new metro routes: Swargate to Katraj and PCMC to Nigdi.
The goal is to reduce train frequency during rush hours.
Commuters anticipate less crowding and shorter wait times.
