According to sources, the Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation (MMRC) may be tasked with building the proposed underground Metro Line 11 project from Wadala to CSMT (ChhatrapatiShivajiMaharaj Terminus).
Previously, the Metro Line 11 work was supposed to be completed by the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA). According to officials, the state government has decided to transfer the project from the MMRDA to the MMRC because the corporation is already building the underground Mumbai Metro Line 3, which connects Colaba to SEEPZ via Andheri.
Metro Line 11 will pass through Mumbai Port Trust Land. Considering the importance of land value, the proposed line was decided to be taken underground. As per the MMRDA’s plan, Line 11 would have been part-underground and part-elevated.
