The Blue Line metro Hebbal to airport route runs along NH-44 (Bellary Road), passing just west of HRC Pristine on its way north to Kempegowda International Airport. Two stations serve the locality: Jakkur Cross, about 1 km from the site, and Kodigehalli, about 1.6 km away. Both are under construction, and the Hebbal end will connect with the wider network, including a proposed Red Line interchange at Hebbal.
