Mumbai Metro's Kalyan-Taloja project to begin soon

The long-delayed project to extend Mumbai Metro service along the Kalyan-Taloja stretch is finally moving forward. Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde recently announced a Rs 15.21 billion fund for the project and stated that construction will begin soon.

The Orange Line is extended to Kalyan-Dombivli-Taloja. This corridor will be 20.75 kilometres long with 18 stations.

The MMRDA has issued tenders for nine stations, and the process for other stations will begin soon.

This route's stations will all be elevated, and it will connect to Mumbai Metro Line 5.
