The Southern Railway team recommended a two-corridor metro, 80&#160;km (50&#160;mi) in length, in addition to commuter rail lines and a ring railway.<sup id="cite_ref-:6_20-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:6-20"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1993, the State of Karnataka established another committee to look into mass rapid transit.

The study recommended a 2-line metro, 60&#160;km (37.3&#160;mi) and 50&#160;km (31&#160;mi) in length, cross shaped. The middle of the cross was to be at the Central Railway Station in Bengaluru, completely underground. The economic rate-of-return was forecast at 22.3%. The financial forecast assumes a government subsidy for interest payments and some depreciation, i.e. fare revenue will cover somewhat more than direct operating costs.
