Mumbai’s first underground metro, Line 3, will have some of the deepest underground railway stations in India. The deepest will be the T2 station, 30m below the surface. While most other stations will be located 22-25m below the ground level, the T1 and Sahar Road stations will be deeper.
On the Colaba-Bandra-SEEPZ metro line, 26 of the 27 stations are underground.
Construction status
Work on Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport T2 metro station, which started seven years ago, is 91 per cent ready. It will also house the tallest escalator, of 19.15m, which is equal to an eight-storey building.
