Bengaluru Metro passengers will get extended services on October 3, with last trains from a few terminals leaving later than their usual time. The extension is expected to offer additional travel options in the city when passengers travel at night.
According to the new schedule, the last train departure times have been extended at all the major terminal stations like Whitefield, Challaghatta, Madavara, Silk Institute, RV Road, and Electronic Bommasandra. The Majestic interchange station will also have a late last train departure.
The longer timings are particularly relevant for passengers travelling late in the evening and those connecting between different Metro corridors. Travellers should check the terminal-specific last train timing before starting their journey, especially when heading towards the end stations.
Last Train Timings From Major Terminals
Under the extended schedule for October 3, the last train from Whitefield will leave at 12 midnight.
At Challaghatta, the last train will leave at 12:20 am, giving additional time to passengers on the western end of the Metro network.
The last train from Madavara is scheduled to leave at 12:15 am. Passengers using the Silk Institute terminal will have a last train at 12:20 am.
The last departure from the listed terminal stations will be from RV Road, where the last train will leave at 1:15 am.
At the southern end of the network, the final train from Electronic Bommasandra will leave at 11:55 pm.
The Majestic station, one of Bengaluru’s key Metro interchange points, will have its last train at 12:55 am.

| Challaghatta | 12:20 am |
| Madavara | 12:15 am |

Passengers Get More Late-Night Travel Options
The extra Metro hours will benefit passengers who have to travel later at night. Metro services in Bengaluru connect a number of major residential, commercial, and transportation hubs and are a reliable option for commuters.
Passengers who travel from terminal stations should know the exact last-train departure time because the timings differ from one terminal to another. When arriving at the station close to the departure time, it may be difficult for them to enter the station, purchase or validate the ticket, and board the train.
Those making an interchange at Majestic should particularly pay attention to the 12:55 am last-train timing, since the availability of a connecting service may depend on the route and direction of travel.
Check Timings Before Starting the Journey
The October 3 extension applies to the terminal departure times, so passengers should plan their journey according to their boarding station and destination. They should also plan the time to reach the station before they are scheduled to leave.
The extension gives late-night commuters more flexibility on October 3. However, passengers should not assume that every Metro station or route will have the same last-train timing. The terminal-wise schedule should therefore be checked before travelling.
With the extended services, passengers using Bengaluru Metro on October 3 will have later options on some of the major corridors, such as departures extending well after midnight at some of the terminals. The last listed departure is from RV Road at 1:15 am, while Electronic Bommasandra has its final departure at 11:55 pm.
