Mumbai Metro Line 3: BKC-Atre Chowk Phase 2A Set to Open by March 2025

The Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation (MMRC) is set to extend its Metro Line 3 service with the launch of the BKC-Acharya Atre Chowk, Worli section (Phase 2A) by late March 2025. This expansion, part of the Colaba-Bandra-Seepz Metro 3 corridor, has achieved 93.1 per cent overall completion, with station construction nearing 98.9 per cent.

The project follows the successful commissioning of the 12-kilometer Aarey-BKC segment in October 2024. Although the initial ridership on this section has been lower than expected, a significant increase is anticipated once the full Aarey-Colaba corridor becomes operational. The state government has instructed MMRC to complete the BKC-Worli section within 100 days, with system-related work currently at 85.8 per cent completion.

Spanning 33.5 kilometre, the Aqua Line is expected to enhance Mumbai’s public transportation system by linking key business districts and reducing travel time. The final stages of development include completing architectural features and obtaining mandatory safety approvals before opening for public use. Once fully operational, the metro corridor will play a vital role in improving connectivity and easing congestion in one of the city’s busiest transit routes.
