The 11.1-kilometre Navi Mumbai Metro line from Belapur to Pendhar with 11 stations that has been under construction since 2011 is set to be commissioned and put into operational use in the next few months.
CIDCO, the nodal agency for the project, will soon obtain the Commission of Railway Safety (CMRS) certificate for the Belapur-Kharghar stretch, following which it can begin operations on the line. The Kharghar-Pendhar stretch already received CMRS certification in October 2021.
The CIDCO has now appointed MahaMetro, which will take the responsibility for the operations of Navi Mumbai Metro Line 1.
