Mumbai Metro rail-3 underground project to take at least 2 more years to complete

According to a senior official of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA), the Colaba-SEEPZ metro train line-3 may take another two to two-and-a-half years to complete since sections of the tunnel boring work and station building are still waiting.

Once finished, the city’s first underground metro line would connect south Mumbai and the western suburbs to the city airport, easing traffic congestion for outlying residents.

Addressing a press conference, MMRDA’s metropolitan commissioner SVR Srinivas said, “Mumbai metro line 3 will take at least another two to two-and-a-half years to complete as a lot of work remains other than the depot.”

“Another 1.5 km-long tunnel boring work on the 33.5 km line is pending, apart from construction of the stations and other work including signalling, telecommunications, overhead wires and control center”, he added.
