The metro rail will operate at the same speed as in Chennai. The metro rail project is to be implemented in 3 phases. It was announced that the metro will be built at the end of the first phase of work on Sathi Salai up to the Valiyampalayam section.
An announcement has been made that a regular metro rail project will be implemented in coimbatore instead of the Metro Light project. Metro Light means slower and will have fewer coaches. But the coimbatore Metro will function as a full metro like the chennai Metro.
Initially, it was announced that the Metro Light project would be implemented in Coimbatore. But after the consultation taken by Chief minister Stalin, this has been changed. Considering the development and importance of the industrial city of coimbatore, it has been decided to implement the regular metro rail project instead of the Metro Light project.
