Nagpur is in the process of developing a significant public transport mode, the Nagpur Metro. Along with the metro, various other facilities to integrate the metro system with different modes of transport to create a seamless public transport system are being planned. Under this, bicycle and walk are the major modes of transport. All along the metro corridor and along the city’s major roads, cycle tracks and footpaths have been proposed. This paper attempts to find the impact of facilities planned in the city on the ridership of the metro services. It also attempts to understand where the authority should develop these facilities first to increase the ridership at a faster pace. The results found that commercial places need footpaths and cycle tracks at the earliest, closely followed by the residential places. On the other hand, commuters from industrial areas do not seem keen on the services. The paper also stated that females were more willing to use such services than males.
