Jayadeva Hospital metro station
Jayadeva Hospital is a double-elevated interchange metro station on the north-south corridor of the Yellow Line and the Pink Line[1] of Namma Metro in Bengaluru, India. This metro station will be the first multi-elevated interchange station in the Namma Metro network. The station is named after the Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences and Research which is located nearby and serves MICO Layout (BTM), Gurappanapalya, Jayanagar and JP Nagar 3rd Phase.
History
Yellow Line
In December 2016, the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) issued a call for bids to construct the Jayadeva Hospital metro station along the 6.340 km Reach 5 – Package 3 section (Central Silk Board - Rashtreeya Vidyalaya Road) of the 18.825 km Yellow Line of Namma Metro. On 16 May 2017, HCC-URC Cementation JV was selected as the lowest bidder for this stretch, with their bid closely aligning with the original cost estimates.[2] Consequently, the contract was successfully awarded to the company, which then commenced construction of the metro station in accordance with the agreements.
The Yellow Line began operations from 10 August 2025 and has been officially inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, with four trainsets which are ready for operations after arriving from Titagarh Rail Systems in Kolkata.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9] The opening was delayed from May 2025 as previously announced by the Namma Metro Managing Director, Maheshwar Rao. [10][11][12]
The elevated section of the Pink Line covering a distance of 7.5 km from Kalena Agrahara to Tavarekere is expected to be operational around March 2026,[13][14][15] after being delayed from December 2025.[16][17][18][19][20][21]
