Mumbai Metro network expansion plan
The Mumbai Metro was inaugurated in June 2006 by the then Prime Minister of India Manmohan Singh, who laid the foundation stone for the first section of this ambitious transport project. Designed to be constructed in three phases over a period of 15 years, the entire metro network is expected to be completed by October 2026. The Mumbai Metro is the fourth longest operational metro network in India with an operational length of 68.93 km (42.83 mi) as of May 2025. When completed, the core system will consist of sixteen high-capacity metro railway lines, spanning a total of more than 523 kilometres (325.0 mi) (25% underground, the rest elevated, a small portion built at grade) and served by 350 stations.
(2025–2026)
Lines 4 and 4A (Wadala–Kasarvadavali–Gaimukh) will have trial runs and begin passenger service, providing faster metro connectivity to eastern areas of Mumbai and Thane.
Line 2B (DN Nagar–Mandale) will begin after new coach testing, connecting western suburbs to areas such as Chembur and Mankhurd.
Line 3 (Colaba–Bandra–SEEPZ–Aarey) will become partially operational with further improved connectivity with underground subways will provide direct metro connectivity to Colaba and the southern tip.
(2026–2028)
Line 3's Navy Nagar extension will be completed, providing direct metro connectivity to Colaba and the southern tip.
Line 9's extension to Dongri Depot (about 4.9 km and 2 new stations) will be launched, providing relief to commuters in the western suburbs.
Line 8 Airport Express (CSMIA–NMIA) will be launched, providing faster connectivity to Mumbai and Navi Mumbai airports.
Work on 6 new metro projects approved by the state government will be expedited, which will receive international funding.
Dharavi interchange hub will be developed, providing an integrated network of metro, local train and bus services.
(2028–2034)
Lines 10, 12, 13 and 14 will be constructed, connecting Mira Road, Virar, Remote suburbs like Badlapur, Kalyan and Taloja will be directly connected to the metro and travel time will be reduced significantly.
The 29 km long Thane Metro Ring Line is expected to be completed by 2029, connecting the entire Thane city and integrating it with the Mumbai Metro.
Over the years, Mumbai's metro network will be around 337 km long, making it equal to or larger than the Delhi Metro.
This will reduce traffic jams and pollution and provide the city with a world-class public transport system.
