For those who rely on the metro for their daily commute, PMRCL has suggested several alternative routes and modes of transportation, including bus services, auto-rickshaws, and shared cab services. The corporation has also coordinated with local transport authorities to ensure that additional buses are available on major routes to accommodate the increased demand.

However, the safety and reliability of our metro system are our top priorities. We appreciate the public's understanding and cooperation during this essential maintenance period.'
Pune Metro has been a vital part of the city's public transportation network, providing a fast and efficient way for residents and visitors to travel across the city. Since its inauguration, the metro has significantly reduced traffic congestion and improved the quality of life for many Punekars. Regular maintenance is a crucial aspect of maintaining the high standards of service that the metro system has become known for.
In addition to the maintenance work, PMRCL is also exploring ways to further enhance the metro experience for passengers. This includes the implementation of new technology, such as mobile ticketing and real-time tracking, to make the service more convenient and user-friendly.
