  • <div> <p><em><span>Urban transport systems play a pivotal role in shaping the spatial, economic, and environmental dynamics of rapidly growing metropolitan regions. Pune, one of India’s fastest-expanding cities, has witnessed exponential urban sprawl that has intensified mobility challenges, land use demands, and sustainability concerns. The Pune Metro Rail Project represents a major intervention aimed at reorganizing the city’s transport architecture, alleviating traffic congestion, and advancing sustainable urban mobility. This paper critically examines the Pune Metro’s geographical implications, focusing on urban mobility transformation, land use changes, environmental and social sustainability, and institutional frameworks guiding its development. Drawing on spatial urban growth patterns, mobility data, and policy analyses, the research identifies the Metro’s capacity to recalibrate travel behaviour, integrate multimodal networks, and influence land use planning through transit-oriented development. However, shortcomings such as construction delays, ecological footprints, and socio-economic disruptions reveal the complex trade-offs inherent in mega infrastructure projects. The study concludes with recommendations to enhance systemic sustainability and equitable urban transformation.</span></em></p> </div>
