Starting November 1, Kolkata Metro will begin its Saturday services earlier on the Green Line (East-West Corridor), with the first train from Salt Lake Sector V to Howrah Maidan scheduled to leave at 6:32 am instead of 6:39 am.

The Metro authority, in a statement issued on October 31, said, “On Saturdays, Metro Railway will operate 186 services (93 UP & 93 DN) instead of 226 services on Green Line with effect from 01.11.2025 (Saturday).”

While the number of services will be reduced, passengers will now have the benefit of an earlier start to the day, particularly commuters heading towards central Kolkata and Howrah for early work shifts or long-distance train connections.

The revised schedule noted that the first service from Howrah Maidan to Salt Lake Sector V will continue at 6:30 am, while the return service from Salt Lake Sector V to Howrah Maidan will now depart at 6:32 am.

The last services will remain unchanged at 9:45 pm from Howrah Maidan and 9:47 pm from Salt Lake Sector V.
