[0:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=6) What's above you isn't just a metro station.

[0:09](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=9) This is Jayadeva Hospital Metro Station.

[0:12](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=12) It's built right over one of Bengaluru's busiest junctions.

[0:16](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=16) But the interesting thing here isn't the station, it's how they built it.

[0:22](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=22) First, let's understand the Yellow Line.

[0:24](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=24) On one end, RV Road, on the other, Electronic City and Bommasandra.

[0:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=28) But another metro line also passes through this very spot.

[0:32](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=32) The Pink Line, running along Banashankari Ghat Road.

[0:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=36) Here's the problem. The road is right here, the flyover is right here, the Yellow Line is right here, and so is the Pink Line.

[0:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=43) So what did the engineers do? With limited space, they didn't move sideways, they went up.

[0:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=49) At the bottom, a vehicular underpass, above it, the regular road, above that, a flyover, and above it, the metro station concourse, On top of that, the yellow line, and above everything else, the pink line.

[1:01](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=61) This structure stretches from the road below to the station roof and rises to about 38 meters.

[1:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=68) That's as tall as a 12- or 13-story building.

[1:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=71) But what exactly is an interchange? Simple. Imagine you're coming on the yellow line from Electronic City.

[1:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=78) You can get off at Jayadeva and switch to the pink line above.

[1:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=81) Underpass, road, flyover, concourse, yellow line, pink line— all at one junction.

[1:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=88) So next time you cross the Jayadeva Junction, look up for a moment.

[1:32](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=92) It's not just a metro station. It's the story of Bengaluru growing upward when there was no room.

[1:38](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/k6RfyMFmFQef/en/jayadeva-metro-station-bengaluru-s-six-level-engineering?t=98) I'll tell you the story. The story behind it all.
