Mumbai: The City and Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO) has appointed Building Enviro Pvt Ltd to obtain environmental and statutory clearances for Metro Line 8, the proposed 35-km corridor linking Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) with Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA).
Also Watch:
Construction is targeted to begin in March 2027, subject to approvals. The project is planned under a public-private partnership (PPP) model.
The consultant will seek Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ), forest, wildlife and other permissions, as the alignment passes through mangrove belts and coastal areas.
The corridor will pass through Kurla, Ghatkopar East, Vashi, Nerul, Seawoods and Targhar.

The project includes a new bridge across Thane Creek, parallel to the existing bridge. A 27.2-hectare depot is proposed on salt pan land near the Mankhurd Inter-State Bus Terminus at Mandale, south of the Sion–Panvel Highway.
The airport link assumes significance amid discussions over redevelopment of Terminal 1 at CSMIA. Mumbai International Airport Ltd (MIAL) had sought shifting international flights to 14 destinations to NMIA.
The state has instead proposed redeveloping Terminal 1B first, followed by demolition of Terminal 1A.
