Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Despite the festive season rush, Bhopal Metro has failed to witness the expected boost in ridership, with the Madhya Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation introducing a revised timetable that will further restrict weekday services. The new schedule will come into effect from Nov 16, 2026, for Monday to Saturday, while Sunday and public holiday operations will continue as before.…
Bhopal Metro has trimmed weekday services and adjusted train times amid low ridership, with the new schedule starting from November 16, 2026. From Monday to Saturday, trains will now depart between 12 pm and 7:30 pm, with earlier departures from Subhash Nagar and AIIMS stations. The first train from Subhash Nagar will leave at 12 pm, while the last train from AIIMS will depart at 7:30 pm.
In contrast, Sunday and public holiday services will maintain the previous schedule, operating from 11:30 am to 8:30 pm. Trains will run every 30 minutes until 1 pm and every 15 minutes thereafter. The modified timetable aims to enhance passenger convenience and operational efficiency.
