Phase 2 Information
58 km Hyderabad Metro Phase 2 project is currently in the proposal stage. In February 2020, its detailed project report (DPR) with 3 new lines & extensions of existing lines was submitted to the Telangana government for approval.
As per the latest plan revealed by Hyderabad Metro’s MD, the Phase 2 project will include 3 elevated corridors or extensions of the existing lines built in the 67 km Phase 1 project. It hasn’t been finalized whether this phase will be developed on the EPC method or on the PPP (Public-Private Partnership) route.

New Phase 2 Plan
Line-1 – Red Line: Miyapur – Lakdikapul

- Station Names: N/A
- Note: This extension will connect and pass through Miyapur – BHEL – Kondapur – Gachibowli – Raidurg – Mehdipatnam – Masab Tank – Lakdi Ka Pul (located also on the Red Line) intersecting itself to form a small ring for the north-west quadrant of the city.

Its Detailed Project Report (DPR) for this extension was prepared by the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation in 2018-19.
