The '''Hyderabad Multi-Modal Transport System''', commonly abbreviated as '''MMTS''', is a [[Urban rail transit in India|suburban rail]] system in [[Hyderabad]], [[India]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/telangana/mmts-affordable-but-few-takers/article65807131.ece|title=MMTS: Affordable but few takers|website=[[The Hindu]] |date=25 August 2022 |last1=Geetanath |first1=V. }}</ref> A [[joint venture]] of the [[Government of Telangana]] (formerly [[Government of Andhra Pradesh]]) and the [[South Central Railway zone|South Central Railway]], it is operated by the latter. The {{convert|90|km|adj=on}} system caters to  the [[Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation|city of Hyderabad]] and the neighbouring suburban areas connecting [[Hyderabad]], [[Secunderabad]], [[Falaknuma]], [[Lingampally, Hyderabad|Lingampally]], [[Medchal]] and [[Umdanagar]] with a total of 133 MMTS services. Currently 86 MMTS services are being operated due to the effect of [[COVID-19]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=15 April 2022 |title=Hyderabad: South Central Railway restores 86 services of MMTS |url=https://www.siasat.com/hyderabad-south-central-railway-restores-86-mmts-services-2309295/ |access-date=7 February 2023 |website=The Siasat Daily |language=en-US}}</ref> 

==History==
The Hyderabad MMTS project was conceived as a joint venture between the [[Government of India]] and the [[Government of Andhra Pradesh]] (retrospectively referred to as Government of United Andhra Pradesh) with an [[Memorandum of understanding|MoU]] signed in September 2000.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.business-standard.com/article/economy-policy/rs-4-500-crore-mmts-project-report-under-way-104021601086_1.html|title=Rs 4,500-crore MMTS project report under way|date=16 February 2004|work=Business Standard|access-date=28 February 2020}}</ref> The first phase was inaugurated  on 9 August 2003 by then [[Deputy Prime Minister of India]], [[L.

In May 2010, [[Indian Railways]] decided to take over the 104 kilometre (65 mi) as part of the Phase II at an estimated cost of ₹ 641 crore. The [[Ministry of Railways (India)|Railway Board]] cleared the approval of the second phase after the state government agreed to fund two-thirds of the project cost.<ref>{{Cite news |date=21 April 2010 |title=State to loosen its purse for MMTS phase-II project |work=The Times of India |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/hyderabad/state-to-loosen-its-purse-for-mmts-phase-ii-project/articleshow/5838246.cms?from=mdr |access-date=7 February 2023 |issn=0971-8257}}</ref> 

Although the Phase-II was scheduled to operate by 2018, it was delayed due to various reasons and was finally opened on 8 April 2023 after 20 years from the Phase-I by the [[Prime Minister of India|Prime Minister]], [[Narendra Modi]] at [[Secunderabad Junction railway station|Secunderabad Junction]] after the operation of a smaller stream in 2019.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Geetanath |first=V. |date=7 April 2023 |title=SCR to use existing MMTS train sets to run phase-II services |language=en-IN |work=The Hindu |url=https://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/Hyderabad/scr-to-use-existing-mmts-train-sets-to-run-phase-ii-services/article66710324.ece |access-date=8 April 2023 |issn=0971-751X}}</ref>

== Phase-I ==
The first phase was completed at a cost of ₹1.62 billion (US$22 million), and it was inaugurated on 9 August 2003 by Deputy Prime Minister of India, L. K. Advani.<ref>{{Cite news |date=9 August 2003 |title=Advani flags off Hyderabad MMTS |work=The Times of India |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/hyderabad/Advani-flags-off-Hyderabad-MMTS/articleshow/122771.cms?from=mdr |access-date=7 February 2023 |issn=0971-8257}}</ref> The project complements the city's rapid growth in information technology, biotechnology, health, aviation and tourism. This phase was completed in two streams, the first stream of MMTS between [[Hyderabad Deccan railway station|Hyderabad]], [[Lingampalli railway station|Lingampalli]] and [[Secunderabad Junction railway station|Secunderabad]] with a distance of {{Convert|29|km}} covering 17 stations. The second steam of MMTS between Secunderabad and [[Falaknuma railway station|Falaknuma]], covering a distance of {{Convert|15|km}} with 11 stations was completed the next year, totalling the number of stations to 27 with Secunderabad being the biggest interchange of the {{Convert|44|km|adj=on}} network.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Geetanath |first=V. |date=8 August 2019 |title=After 16 years, MMTS has a long way to go |language=en-IN |work=The Hindu |url=https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/telangana/after-16-years-mmts-has-a-long-way-to-go/article28918181.ece |access-date=7 February 2023 |issn=0971-751X}}</ref> The network also consists of the coverage of other areas such as [[Bolarum railway station|Bolarum]] towards [[Manoharabad]] and [[Umdanagar railway station|Umdanagar]] which was not completely integrated into the MMTS network. Although many other routes and stations were available, the process of electrification of these other routes were included in the Phase-II.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Route electrification done, but MMTS Phase II yet to start services |url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/cities/hyderabad/2021/sep/09/route-electrification-done-but-mmts-phase-ii-yet-to-start-services-2356182.html |access-date=7 February 2023 |website=The New Indian Express|date=9 September 2021 }}</ref>

== Phase-II ==
In May 2010, Indian Railways decided to adopt the MMTS {{convert|104|km|adj=on}} Phase II project at an estimated cost of {{INR}} 641 crore. The Railway Board approved the second phase after the state government agreed to fund two-thirds of its cost. It was expected to be completed by 2018, and will handle 300,000 passengers a day as per the estimates back then. A {{convert|6|km|adj=on}} stretch from [[Lingampally, Hyderabad|Lingampally]] to R. C. Puram and a {{convert|12.5|km|adj=on}} stretch from Bolaram to Medchal was scheduled to begin in March 2018, and the {{convert|12|km|adj=on}} Moula Ali–Ghatkesar stretch was scheduled to open in July 2018 but it was delayed due to several reasons. Regardless of the delay trial runs started on few sections of phase 2 in August 2020.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/hyderabad/mmts-phase-ii-trial-begins-covers-90-km/articleshow/77730278.cms|title=MMTS phase-II trial begins, covers 90 km|website=The Times of India|date=25 August 2020 }}</ref> Quadrupling 4 lines with electrification and installation of [[Automatic block signaling]] in the existing double line between Ghatkesar and Moula Ali, doubling and electrification between Falaknuma and Umdanagar in the southern part of city; Doubling and electrification between Moula Ali and Sitafalmandi, connecting Malkajgiri and doubling with electrification between Moula Ali and Sanathnagar along with construction of 5 new stations in the section for providing east-west connectivity bypassing Secunderabad station.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.thehansindia.com/news/cities/hyderabad/falaknuma-a-key-phase-of-mmts-ii-project-commissioned-679088?infinitescroll=1|title=key phases of MMTS-II project commissioned |website=The Hans India|date=28 March 2021 }}</ref> The six new stations are built Moula Ali-Sanathnagar line.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.financialexpress.com/business/railways-modi-launches-mega-rail-project-in-telangana-sanathnagar-moula-ali-rail-line-now-fully-electrified-6-new-stations-inaugurated-3413990/|title=Modi launches mega rail project in Telangana!

The Phase II was stalled for over a decade owing to lack of funds. The Union Government allocated ₹ 600 crore as part of the Union budget (2023-24) towards it for resumption of phase II works. Over time, the sanctioned cost has been escalated to ₹ 1,150 crores.<ref>{{Cite news |date=4 February 2023 |title=Rs 600 crore fund booster to Hyderabad's Multi-Modal Transport System phase 2 |work=The Times of India |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/hyderabad/rs-600-crore-fund-booster-to-hyderabads-multi-modal-transport-system-phase-2/articleshow/97590975.cms?from=mdr |access-date=7 February 2023 |issn=0971-8257}}</ref>

== Milestones ==

# On [[International Women's Day]] 2012, S. Satyavati was [[South Central Railway zone|South Central Railway]]'s first female driver, when she drove the MMTS Matrubhumi Ladies Special Train from Falaknuma to Lingampally.<ref>{{cite news| url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/hyderabad/Woman-drives-local-train-in-Hyderabad-first-for-South-Central-Railways/articleshow/12188110.cms | archive-url=https://archive.today/20130126091451/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-03-08/hyderabad/31135364_1_mmts-trains-lingampally-local-train | url-status=live | archive-date=26 January 2013 | work=[[The Times of India]] | title=Woman drives local train in Hyderabad, first for South Central Railways }}</ref> 
# HYLITES (Hyderabad Live Train Enquiry System), a [[mobile app]] for MMTS station and train inquiries, was introduced.
#UTS stands for Unreserved Ticketing System. It is an app launched by Indian Railways' subsidiary body CRIS in 2014 to generate or cancel unreserved train tickets, book seasonal tickets, renew passes, and purchase platform tickets. The initiative saves passengers from getting into long queues to take Printed Card Tickets (PCTs) for local train travel or platform visits
