The completely elevated Line 3 will be owned by Pune Metro Rail Development Authority and commuters of this line will be benefited to get an interchange at Civil Court if they wish to move on Line 1 & 2 of Maha Metro. Once operational, Line 3 is expected to have a daily ridership of 2.6 mio. people.
