Mumbai's Upcoming Infrastructure Projects Set for Transformation

Mumbai is on the brink of a significant transformation over the next nine months, spearheaded by the opening of the Metro 3 underground line. This project aims to alleviate the city’s chronic traffic congestion and relieve pressure on the already burdened suburban railway system. In addition, the Navi Mumbai airport's first terminal is poised to address airport capacity issues, while the completion of the missing link on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway will drastically reduce travel time between the two cities.
