The entire 33.5 km network of Mumbai’s first underground Metro Aqua Line 3 is expected to be commissioned within 2024. While substantial work on Phase 1 between Aarey and Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) will be completed in December, it will be subject to extensive trials and testing; and the stretch is likely to be opened for public use only in early 2024. Work on Phase 2 between BKC and Colaba has also been expedited and should open within 2024, commissioning the entire 33.5-km-long stretch.
Additional trains will be acquired at regular intervals. File pic
