Mumbai is gearing up for a significant boost in urban transport. The upcoming Metro 8, also known as the Gold line, will be the first metro route to offer a direct link between Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) in Andheri and the under-construction Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA).
Spanning approximately 35 km, this corridor is expected to greatly improve connectivity between Mumbai and Navi Mumbai, offering passengers a seamless transit option between the two major airports and reducing travel time across the metropolitan region. The project is expected to be completed by 2029.
