The priority corridor of the Agra Metro is likely to commence operations by February 2024, six months earlier than the originally scheduled date in August 2024. The tunnel work has been completed in a record time of 11 months after the tunnel boring machine was inaugurated by Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath in February last year. In February 2023, CM Adityanath had commissioned two tunnel boring machines (TBMs) – Yamuna and Ganga – to build a 3 km long tunnel of the 6 km priority corridor.

The team of Uttar Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation (UPMRC) will make special arrangements to save rats and termites from the metro. They will be given contract to kill them. Only water and cold drinks will be allowed to be carried in the metro. If passengers are caught eating pizza or burger in the coach, then in the first instance the passengers will be warned and then further action will be taken.
