Metro Railway plans to construct an underground subway to connect the existing and new Esplanade stations on the Blue Line for smoother passenger interchange. Consultants will be hired to expand the Blue Line's Esplanade station due to increased passenger traffic following the full operationalization of the Green Line. General Manager... P. Uday Kumar Reddy confirmed the feasibility of an additional tunnel. The Esplanade station of the Blue Line, a key interchange for the Green Line, is experiencing overcrowding, exacerbated by the influx of passengers from the Green Line, connecting Howrah and Sealdah stations. Limited space prevents the addition of ticket counters, but more ticket-vending machines are planned, and 60 RPF security guards have been deployed. The Blue Line has increased services and reduced intervals, but the infrastructure is still overwhelmed, leading to overcrowding at Esplanade station. The North-South Esplanade station, not designed for multiple line interchange, needs urgent crowd management solutions.

Metro Railway Esplanade station ko Blue Line ke liye ek underground subway banane ka plan kar raha hai, taaki passengers ko interchange ke liye asani ho. Consultants ko hire kiya jayega Blue Line ke Esplanade station ko expand karne ke liye, kyunki Green Line (East-West Metro) full run hone ke baad... passenger traffic badh gaya hai. General Manager P. Uday Kumar Reddy ne confirm kiya ki ek aur tunnel banane ki jagah hai. Blue Line ka Esplanade station, jo North-South corridor ka hissa hai, Green Line ke saath interchange hone ki wajah se crowded ho raha hai. Green Line ke full operation ke baad passenger numbers badh gaye hain, jo Howrah aur Sealdah railway stations ko connect karta hai. Ticket counters add karne ki jagah kam hai, lekin ticket-vending machines badhane ka plan hai, aur 60 RPF security guards ko deploy kiya gaya hai. Blue Line ne services badhai hain aur intervals kam kiye hain, lekin infrastructure abhi bhi overloaded hai, jis se Esplanade station par overcrowding ho rahi hai. North-South Esplanade station, jo multiple line interchange ke liye design nahi kiya gaya tha, use urgent crowd management solutions ki zarurat hai.
