This project with a cost of Rs. 6250 crores, is expected to reduce the distance between the city and the airport travel time to just 26 minutes.
Also, a multi-location check-in facility will be arranged.
Moreover serving as a vital link between the Aerocity at Adibatla and the planned Pharma City, the project will also offer public transportation to the southern part of Hyderabad.

A special purpose vehicle ( SPV ) called Hyderabad Airport Metro Limited (HAML) was established for the 31 km Airport Metro corridor.

It is a Tri-party venture ( Triparty JV ) between Telangana State Industrial Infrastructure Corporation ( TSIIC ), Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority ( HMDA ), and Hyderabad Metro Rail Limited (HMRL).

NVS Reddy, the MD of HAML, claims that the corridor will have more modern amenities than the Hyderabad Metro Rail.

He wants to offer amenities that are superior to those at Gatwick Airport or Hong Kong.
