Jayadeva Hospital metro station
Jayadeva Hospital is an upcoming double-elevated interchange metro station on the North-South corridor of the Yellow Line and Pink Line[1] of Namma Metro in Bangalore, India. This metro station will be the first multi-elevated interchange metro station in the Namma Metro network. This metro station is named after the Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences and Research which is located nearby and serves MICO Layout (BTM), Gurappanapalya, Jayanagar and JP Nagar 3rd Phase.
As per latest reports, the Yellow Line is slated to be operational between 2nd & 4th weeks of January 2025[2] due to lack of train sets which are needed for commencement of commercial operations. Meanwhile, the elevated section of Pink Line covering a distance of 7.5km (Kalena Agrahara - Tavarekere), is expected to be operational around December 2025. [3][4][5]
History

On 16 May 2017, HCC-URC Cementation JV was selected as the lowest bidder for this stretch, with their bid closely aligning with the original cost estimates.[6] Consequently, the contract was successfully awarded to the company, which then commenced construction of the metro station in accordance with the agreements.
