Good News: Mumbai to get three new Metro corridors; Check details

India TV News  

In a significant decision ahead of the Assembly election, the Maharashtra Cabinet on Tuesday cleared three new Metro corridors for Mumbai which will come up at an estimated cost of around Rs 24,000 crore. The Wadala-GPO Metro 11 corridor, to be built at a cost of Rs 8,000 crore will be 14 kms long and partly elevated and partly underground with stations en route - Wadala RTO, Ganesh Nagar, BPT Hospital and Sewri Metro, Hay Bunder, Coal Bunder, Darukhana, Wadi Bunder, Clock Tower, Carnac Bunder and CSMT Metro. The Gaimukh-Shivaji Chowk Metro 10 corridor will be 11 kms long and will have five stations en route - Gaimukh, Gaimukh Retibunder, Versova Chaarphata, Kashi-Mira and Shivaji Chowk in adjoining Thane district. These new metro corridors are expected to reduce the journey timings by 50-75 per cent compared to by road, enable shifting of road users to metro by nearly one-third, and reduce road traffic congestion by upto 35 per cent.
