The Uttar Pradesh Government has allocated ₹286 crore for Agra metro rail project where 27 stations are proposed to be developed along a 29.4 km long corridor. As of now, the state government has released ₹100 crore of the ₹175 crore for the project which was approved last year. According to the Agra Development Authority (ADA) officials, the Metro rail project, estimated to cost ₹8.379 crore, will give a major boost to the urban public transport connectivity in Agra. According to the DRP approved by the Union Cabinet, the Agra Metro Rail Project will have two corridors which will pass through the heart of the city and will connect prominent tourist places, including the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort and Sikandara as well as ISBT, Raja Ki Mandi railway station, medical college, Agra Cantt railway station, Collectorate, Sanjay Place and densely populated residential areas.
