About Arthala metro station
Arthala opened on 8 March 2019 as part of the Red Line extension into Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, on the stretch towards Shaheed Sthal (New Bus Adda). It is an elevated station between Hindon River and Mohan Nagar, in the Sahibabad Industrial Area locality, with one platform for trains to Shaheed Sthal (New Bus Adda) and the other for trains to Rithala. DMRC publishes only its standard description for the station.
Two gates divide the catchment. Gate 1 serves Parsvnath Exotica, Arthala Peer and the Commercial Tax Office, and Gate 2 serves ITS College and Arthala Village. DMRC lists the Arthala Peer dargah as practically next to the station.
First and last metro at Arthala
Departure times from this station on a weekday, as DMRC’s journey planner gives them (checked on Tuesday 20 October 2026; the planner takes no date). DMRC does not publish separate Saturday, Sunday or holiday times for each station, and on special days it announces changes in advance. A last train after midnight belongs to the previous evening’s service. “Not published” means DMRC’s own answer was inconsistent (arrival before departure), so we leave it out.
