What’s inside:
This article talks about the changes in traffic and the construction of a new metro station near Patna Junction.
The construction of a new metro station near Patna Junction is causing some traffic changes. The main gate area has been blocked off for this work. Passengers should be aware that there is now a small alternative route available near Mahavir Temple and the Milk Market.
To help with the construction, vehicles will need to take a detour under the GPO Golambar and Mithapur flyovers. Metro officials have mentioned that this new traffic arrangement will stay in place until the construction is finished, so it’s good to keep it in mind while traveling.
A three-floor underground interchange station is being built close to the junction. This station will make it easier for passengers as it will connect directly to Patna Junction’s parking area. Two metro corridors are planned, one from Danapur and another via PMCH and Gandhi Maidan, allowing easy transfers between stations without stepping outside.
Additionally, a new underground subway is being constructed in front of Mahavir Temple. This subway will link directly to the interchange station at Buddha Smriti Park and will include modern facilities like escalators and lifts to help passengers navigate smoothly.
As construction continues, the metro station is designed to allow passengers to reach the metro coach directly from the train, without needing to cross any roads. This will create a seamless travel experience and enhance accessibility at the junction.
Summary:
- Main gate traffic affected due to metro station construction.
- Alternative route available near Mahavir Temple.
- Three-floor interchange station will connect to Patna Junction parking.
- New subway with modern facilities is being built for better access.
- Passengers can directly reach metro from the train without crossing roads.
