Nagpur: Maha Metro’s Nagpur service will be extended till 11:30 pm on February 6 for hassle free return of cricket fans on the One Day International (ODI) match between India and England at Vidarbha Cricket Association (V CA) Stadium, Jamtha.
Heavy traffic congestion is expected on the road to Jamtha and thus metro services will offer hassle-free travel alternatives for cricket enthusiasts before and after the match. After taking a train from Khapri, the cricket fans can travel up to Automotive Square or switch lines at the Sitabuldi Interchange to commute till Lokmanya Nagar or Prajapati Nagar on the Aqua Line. The road to the stadium will be flooded with vehicles on the match day and hence metro travel would be the best option to avail of.
