The Metro line 6's Vikhroli station is set to be a towering visual treat. With construction in progress on the line, the proposed station at Vikhroli would be built at a height equivalent to a seven to eight storey building. This was revealed at a public hearing held on May 21.

Bird's eye view
An MMRDA official said , "The Swami Samarth Nagar-Vikhroli metro line 6 will have its last station at the start of JVLR, near Vikhroli. At this location, the station would be at a height of 26-27 metres, equivalent to a seven to eight storey building. Commuters travelling on this Metro line would get a bird's eye view of JVLR and Eastern Express Highway." MMRDA officials said the station is being built at this height because line 6 will have to pass over the existing flyover on EEH as well as the Wadala Thane-Kasarvadavli Metro line that will pass via EEH.
