Indore Metro Distance Between Stations 2026: Distance from One Station to Another
Indore Metro connects important parts of the city through its Yellow Line Ring Corridor. Passengers often want to know the distance between two consecutive metro stations, the distance from Gandhi Nagar to Vijay Nagar, and how far the metro travels between major locations.
This article explains the available inter-station distance data for Indore Metro. A detailed design consultant document prepared for the Indore Metro project contains station chainages and distances between consecutive stations. These figures are useful as design-reference distances. They should not be confused with road distance, GPS distance or a newly measured as-built track distance.
Indore Metro Station Distance – Quick Overview
- Metro Line: Yellow Line
- Operational Stations: 16, according to the September 2026 PIB announcement
- Operational Network: Approximately 17 KM
- Design-reference distance range between consecutive stations: Approximately 0.61 to 1.79 KM
- Average of the 15 listed design-reference intervals: Approximately 1.06 KM
- Route: Gandhi Nagar to Malviya Nagar Chauraha
- Project Authority: Madhya Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation Limited
1. How Much Distance Is There Between Two Indore Metro Stations?
The distance between two consecutive Indore Metro stations is not the same throughout the route. The detailed design-reference table shows that some station pairs are less than one kilometre apart, while other sections are longer.
For the Gandhi Nagar to Radisson Square sequence, the listed inter-station distances range from approximately 0.612 KM to 1.785 KM. The average of these 15 consecutive intervals is approximately 1.06 KM.
These are engineering design-reference figures from a consultant document prepared for MPMRCL. Actual track measurements and the latest passenger information should be confirmed through the metro operator.
2. Indore Metro Distance Between All Consecutive Stations
The following table reproduces the station-to-station distances listed in the detailed design document for the Yellow Line. The station sequence covers Gandhi Nagar to Radisson Square.
| No. | From Station | To Station | Distance |

| 1 | Gandhi Nagar | Super Corridor 6 | 0.795 KM |
| 2 | Super Corridor 6 | Super Corridor 5 | 1.037 KM |
| 3 | Super Corridor 5 | Super Corridor 4 | 1.219 KM |
| 4 | Super Corridor 4 | Super Corridor 3 | 1.255 KM |
| 5 | Super Corridor 3 | Super Corridor 2 | 1.001 KM |
| 6 | Super Corridor 2 | Super Corridor 1 | 1.502 KM |

| 12 | Hira Nagar | Bapat Square | 0.776 KM |
| 13 | Bapat Square | Meghdoot Garden | 0.875 KM |
| 14 | Meghdoot Garden | Vijay Nagar Square | 0.612 KM |
| 15 | Vijay Nagar Square | Radisson Square | 1.147 KM |
Important: The table is based on an earlier detailed design-reference document. It is not a fresh as-built survey of the operational track in 2026. Use it as a reference for the listed station intervals, not as a guaranteed live navigation measurement.
3. Which Two Indore Metro Stations Have the Shortest and Longest Distance?
According to the listed design-reference intervals, the shortest and longest consecutive station distances are:
Shortest listed interval
0.612 KM
Meghdoot Garden to Vijay Nagar Square
Longest listed interval
1.785 KM
MR 10 Road to ISBT / MR 10 Flyover
These values describe the design-reference distance between consecutive stations. They are not the distance between the station entrances by road.
4. Distance from Gandhi Nagar to Other Indore Metro Stations
The design document also provides centre-line chainage values. By subtracting the Gandhi Nagar chainage from the chainage of each subsequent station, the approximate cumulative design-reference distance can be calculated.
| No. | Station | Approx. Distance from Gandhi Nagar |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Gandhi Nagar | 0.000 KM |
| 2 | Super Corridor 6 | 0.795 KM |
| 3 | Super Corridor 5 | 1.832 KM |
| 4 | Super Corridor 4 | 3.051 KM |
| 5 | Super Corridor 3 | 4.306 KM |
| 6 | Super Corridor 2 | 5.307 KM |
| 7 | Super Corridor 1 | 6.809 KM |
| 8 | Bhawarsala Square | 7.833 KM |
| 9 | MR 10 Road | 9.062 KM |
| 10 | ISBT / MR 10 Flyover | 10.847 KM |
| 11 | Chandragupta Square | 11.645 KM |
| 12 | Hira Nagar | 12.500 KM |
| 13 | Bapat Square | 13.276 KM |
| 14 | Meghdoot Garden | 14.151 KM |
| 15 | Vijay Nagar Square | 14.763 KM |
| 16 | Radisson Square | 15.910 KM |
These cumulative figures are calculated from the design chainages in the consultant document. They should not be interpreted as the current official passenger route distance. The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs announced an approximately 17 KM operational network in September 2026.
5. How Is the Distance Between Metro Stations Calculated?
In a metro engineering document, station chainage represents the position of a station along the alignment. The distance between two consecutive stations is calculated by subtracting the earlier station chainage from the next station chainage.
Distance Calculation Formula
Distance = Next Station Chainage − Previous Station Chainage
Example:
Super Corridor 6 chainage = 15.984 KM
Gandhi Nagar chainage = 15.189 KM
Distance = 15.984 − 15.189 = 0.795 KM
This is an engineering alignment calculation. Road distance, walking distance and the distance measured between station gates can be different.
6. What Is the Total Operational Distance of Indore Metro?
The Press Information Bureau announcement dated 5 September 2026 states that Indore Metro had 16 operational stations covering approximately 17 kilometres after the inauguration of Priority Corridor-2.
Alstom, the rolling stock and signalling supplier, separately described the 16-station operational mainline as 16.72 kilometres in its September 2026 announcement.
The older design-reference chainages in the table above produce approximately 15.91 kilometres from Gandhi Nagar to Radisson Square. This is why the design-reference calculation and the later operational network figure should be kept separate.
7. Is Metro Distance the Same as Road Distance?
No. Metro distance and road distance are different measurements.
- Metro distance: Distance along the metro track alignment.
- Road distance: Distance travelled using public roads.
- Walking distance: Distance between pedestrian routes or station entrances.
- Chainage distance: Engineering measurement along the planned or surveyed alignment.
For example, the metro track may follow a straight or curved elevated alignment that does not match the road route between two station areas.
8. How to Check Indore Metro Route and Station Information?
- Visit the official MPMRCL website.
