In the midst of difficulties that have put the Charkop-Bandra-Mankhurd metro line 2 in the non-starter category, the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) seems to be working proactively for the Colaba-Bandra-Seepz (CBZ) line 3, to ensure that the work continues without any delays. They have started their homework on the route, which will be built underground; to ensure that issues like permission or rehabilitation of project-affected people does not push the deadline, or their budget.

The MMRDA is planning better coordination between the two agencies to ensure that they stick to their deadline and budget for metro line 3. File pic
