Kochi Metro has 25 stations on the Blue Line, from Aluva to Tripunithura.

Kochi Metro's Blue Line is 25.61 km long, from Aluva to Tripunithura.

Edapally metro station is the closest stop to Lulu Mall Kochi — a dedicated elevated walkway connects the station platform directly to the mall entrance, letting shoppers skip NH 66 traffic entirely.

Not yet directly — Aluva metro station, the Blue Line's northern terminus, is currently the closest stop, and passengers cover the remaining distance by taxi, auto-rickshaw, or shuttle bus. KMRL is preparing a Phase 3 corridor linking Aluva to the airport and on to Angamaly.

Yes to both. Every Blue Line train carries a dedicated coach reserved for women passengers, and every station has lifts, ramps, tactile paths, and audio-visual announcements for wheelchair users and the visually impaired.
