Metro Line 9 & Metro 2B To Boost Connectivity In Suburbs

Metro Line 9 Phase I, spanning nearly 5 km between Dahisar (East) and Kashigaon, has already received safety clearance from the Commissioner of Metro Rail Safety. The stretch is part of a larger corridor aimed at improving connectivity to Mira Bhayandar and easing congestion for daily commuters who currently depend on overcrowded suburban trains and busy road networks.

Similarly, Phase I of Metro Line 2B, covering around 5.6 km between Mandale in Mankhurd and Diamond Garden in Chembur, is also set to become operational. Once fully completed, the 23.6-km corridor will integrate with major transit systems, including suburban railways, the Monorail and multiple metro lines.
