Anand Vihar metro station
Anand Vihar is an interchange metro station located on the Blue Line and the Pink Line of Delhi Metro.[1] The station is located in the Anand Vihar locality near the interstate border between Delhi and Uttar Pradesh and is a major connectivity hub of East Delhi. It is connected to the Anand Vihar ISBT and Anand Vihar Railway Terminal.
Phase III construction[edit]
Under Phase III, Anand Vihar was become an interchange station with the Inner Ring Road line. From here, passengers can find easier connection to other lines as well as places such as Yamuna Vihar and Mukundpur which currently do not have metro access.
