Thiruvananthapuram Metro is a proposed rapid transit[3] system in the city of Thiruvananthapuram, the capital of the Indian state of Kerala. Thiruvananthapuram, the capital city of Kerala, is all set to have its metro system. Earlier, there was a plan to build a light metro system in the city. However, the plan was later changed to a conventional metro system.
The new Thiruvananthapuram Metro is based on the Comprehensive Mobility Plan (CMP) for the city, which projected a high traffic volume in the future. According to the plan, the proposed Thiruvananthapuram Metro will have two corridors covering 42.1 km, connecting significant parts of the city. The Kochi Metro Rail Ltd (KMRL) submitted a DPR to the state government, marking a significant milestone in the development of this project.
