The Swargate to Katraj Metro update is important for anyone tracking Pune Metro construction and city transport development. Maha Metro has confirmed that tunnelling work for the Swargate to Katraj underground line will begin only after March, even though the project received final approval last year. Viewers searching for Pune Metro news and infrastructure progress will find that the agency has already started the technical groundwork needed for tunnelling.
Current activity includes a detailed topographical survey along the Swargate to Katraj route, which is a mandatory step before tunnel work begins.

Maha Metro plans to use four tunnel boring machines, with two starting from the Swargate side and two from the Katraj side. The underground corridor will have five stations named Market Yard, Padmavati, Katraj, Bibvewadi, and Balajinagar. This update helps viewers understand the realistic pace of Pune Metro work and what to expect over the next few months.
