The second phase covers about 6.2 km across four stations, giving inter-state bus passengers a direct metro link.
The second phase of Patna Metro was slated for inauguration on 26 March 2026 at the conclusion of the Samriddhi Yatra.
It initially runs across four stations — Patliputra Bus Terminal, Zero Mile, Bhootnath and Malahi Pakadi — covering about 6.2 km. Commuters using the Inter State Bus Terminal no longer need to depend on autos and rickshaws for this leg of their journey.
