    Purple Line of the Pune Metro is the first line of the city's mass transit network.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] It runs from PCMC BhavantoSwargate. The 16.59 km (10.31 mi) line will be elevated till Range Hills with 9 stations and will further go underground up to Swargate with 5 stations.[7][8]

    Route[edit]

    The line will go via Kasarwadi (Nashik Phata), Khadki and Shivajinagar.[1][2] The maintenance depot for the Purple Line will be located near the Range Hills station on the land acquired from the College of Agriculture.[3][4]

    Construction[edit]

    Soil testing and topographical surveys of the concerned areas started in late December 2016. Excavation work for erection of pillars began in early June, 2017. The construction of the first pillar was completed by October 2017 and construction work of up to ten pillars was underway. The first viaduct was completely erected by January 2018.[5] The first batch of tracks were laid between PCMC and Sant Tukaram Nagar in the second week of July 2019.[6]

    Infrastructure[edit]

    Signalling[edit]

    The Purple Line utilises the Alstom Urbalis 400 communications-based train control (CBTC) signalling system. Alstom was awarded a EUR90 million contract to supply the signalling and telecommunications systems for the Purple and Aqua Lines, as well as Mumbai Metro Line 2 and Line 7.[9][10]
