Pune Metro is an under-construction mass rapid transit system that comprises three lines with a total length of 55 km. The Metro is in the Pune Metropolitan Region, Pune City, India.

Swargate Station is part of the 17-km Line 1 running from PCMC Building to Swargate. Lines 1 and 2 were expected to become operational in 2021, while the elevated Line 3 was scheduled for completion one year later.

For this project, Dextra supplied more than 1,700 steel active anchors to stabilize vertical retaining walls around the excavation area.

Dextra’s Geotec Steel Active Anchor is the preferred solution for excavation projects requiring post-tensioning.

Active Anchors

The anchors are corrosion-protected and designed with high-tensile, fully-threaded bars that help prevent deformation of the retained structure.

Once the construction of Pune Metro UG04 is completed, the underground station at Swargate will be a strategic part of a multimodal transit hub connecting to city bus services and parking facilities for private vehicles.
