The fate of three elevated upcoming Mumbai metro lines hangs in balance following no confirmation over land availability for depot.
The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) is constructing all the three lines — namely Metro 4 (Wadala to Kasarvadavali) which is 32.32-km-long elevated corridor with 30 stations, second is Metro 5 (Thane-Bhiwandi-Kalyan), which is 24.90 km long elevated corridor with 15 stations and third is Metro 6 (Swami Samarth Nagar-Jogeshwari-Vikhroli-Kanjurmarg) which is 15.31-kilometre-long having 13 stations.
The three lines are part of the 300-km-metro network proposed in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) and the work on several other metro lines is progressing in full swing.
