PMC Bhavan Metro Station
PMC Bhavan is an elevated metro station on the East-West corridor of the Aqua Line of Pune Metro in Pune, India. The station was opened on 1 August 2023 as an extension of Pune Metro Phase I. Aqua Line operates between Vanaz and Ruby Hall Clinic.
The station is located in front of the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) building. Its design is inspired by wadas (house with courtyards) found in peth areas of the city. In September 2023, Maha-Metro has proposed to construct a footbridge which will directly connect the PMC building to the station for easy commute of the employees as well as visitors to the former.
