Khapri is the at-grade southern terminal metro station on the North-South corridor of the Orange Line of Nagpur Metro in the city of Nagpur, Maharashtra.serving the Khapri area of Nagpur. It was opened to the public on 8 March 2019.[1] The station is integrated with the Khapri railway station, and is linked with Wardha Road via a subway that passes under the main railway line.[2]
The Nagpur Metro Rail Corporation Limited (now the Maharashtra Metro Rail Corporation Limited) awarded the contract to construct the station to Infrastructure Leasing & Financial Services (ILFS) in July 2016.[3] Construction of the outer structure of the station was completed by November 2017, and interior work began in the same month.[4][5] The station was awarded a platinum rating by the Indian Green Building Council, the highest rating the Council presents for sustainable construction practices that reduce environmental impact.[2] Construction of the station was completed by January 2019.[6]
The station was originally proposed to be the southern terminus of the North-South Line. However, on 22 November 2017, Mahametro announced a 3 km southern extension to the line which added two new stations - Ecopark and Metro City - the latter becoming the southern terminus.[7]
The station's interiors are adorned by paintings, sculptures and other art depicting the culture of Nagpur, Vidarbha, Maharashtra and India.
