If you’ve been eagerly waiting for the Surat Metro to begin operations but wondering how you’ll cover the last stretch of your journey after stepping out of a station, there’s good news. The Gujarat Metro Rail Corporation (GMRC) is planning to roll out a multi-modal transport system across 21 metro stations on both corridors of the Surat Metro network, aiming to make last-mile connectivity smoother and more convenient for daily commuters.
Under this plan, commuters will be able to easily switch between different modes of transport, such as buses, auto-rickshaws, and e-rickshaws, which will be readily available outside metro stations. This integration is expected to significantly improve last-mile connectivity and make daily travel more convenient, seamless, and affordable.
To initiate this project, GMRC has already floated tenders for the construction of these multi-modal integration systems at the identified metro stations.
