Quick Facts
East-West Green Line Connecting Core
Located 17 meters below ground level, Sealdah Metro Station functions as a key transit terminal of the Kolkata Metro Green Line. The station acts as a high-volume corridor connecting the IT Hub of Salt Lake Sector V to Esplanade and Howrah Maidan, passing underneath the Hooghly River.
Due to its integration with the adjacent Sealdah Railway Station, the facility features a modern double-discharge platform layout. This design allows passengers to exit from both sides of the train doors, improving crowd control and minimizing platform congestion during rush hours.
