STATION
PLANNING

Hyderabad Metro Rail stations serve as gateways to the metro system, combining functionality, efficiency, and aesthetic appeal. Each station is designed to reflect local culture, maintain environmental harmony, and deliver a safe, user-friendly experience.

Architectural Concept

Stations feature site-specific designs with open-sided, overlapping roofing systems that cover platforms, staircases, and escalators, ensuring weather protection and energy efficiency.
Balanced cantilever (Spine & Wing) structural design places a single central row of columns on the road median. This unique approach:
- Minimizes impact on traffic and surrounding properties.
- Preserves sightlines for adjacent roads.
- Provides excellent ventilation and lighting for road users below.
- Allows concourse and platform levels to extend outward without side supports, keeping the ground level clear.

Technical and Operational Planning

Station layouts are optimized for track geometry, operational needs, passenger flow, and right-of-way constraints.
Public and non-public zones are clearly demarcated for passenger safety and operational efficiency.
State-of-the-art railway systems and equipment are integrated at the concourse level to support smooth operations.
A Station Manager's office is positioned for easy passenger access in case of assistance.

Commuter Facilities

Ticketing counters and Ticket Vending Machines provide fast and convenient ticket purchase options.
Barrier-free pedestrian access from roads and parking areas to concourses and platforms ensures a smooth flow for all passengers.
Separate toilets for men, women, and persons with disabilities are available at every station.
Accessibility features include lifts, escalators, and dedicated pathways for differently abled passengers.
Retail kiosks and refreshment points offer mineral water, beverages, and other services to enhance the commuter experience.
Public telephones are available at convenient locations.

Station Navigation and Passenger Information

Clear, multilingual signage guides passengers seamlessly from street level to concourse and platform levels.
Real-time passenger information is displayed for easy journey planning.

Security and Emergency Preparedness

Advanced security systems include baggage screening devices, hand-held scanners, CCTV surveillance, and access control systems at all stations.
First-aid facilities are provided at concourse level for immediate medical assistance.
Backup power (DG and UPS) ensures uninterrupted operation of essential services.
Stations are equipped with life safety features such as fire detection and suppression systems, emergency lighting, public address and information displays (PA & PIDS), automatic ticket gate opening, and appropriately sized staircases for evacuation, all compliant with relevant safety standards.
