The signboards of Hyderabad Metro are displayed in Telugu, English, Hindi and Urdu at metro stations.[5] All stations of Hyderabad Metro Rail are equipped with tactile pathway right from street level till the platform level along with elevator buttons equipped with Braille, for providing a barrier less navigation for the visually impaired commuters.

Each line of the Hyderabad Metro is identified by a specific colour. The system uses rolling stock of standard gauge and has the elevated lines. The Metro is open from about 06:30 to 22:30 hours with trains operating at a frequency of 3.5 to 6.5 minutes with SelTrac Communications-based train control (CBTC) and integrated telecommunication and supervision systems that allows an unattended train operation (UTO).[6] As of February 2020, Hyderabad Metro has an average daily ridership of around 475,000 commuters.[7] The Red Line connects Miyapur to the north and LB Nagar to the south, while the Blue Line connects HITEC City to the west and Nagole to the east.
