The Mumbai Underground Metro: Mumbai Metro-3, the first fully underground metro of Mumbai, being built at a cost of Rs 33,000 crore nears completion. Spanning 33.5 km, the metro has 26 stations with a depot. Since its construction in 2016, the metro has faced controversies and challenges from the protest against allocating Aarey land to constructing tunnels below the heritage buildings in South Mumbai. Phase 1 from SEEPZ to BKC will likely start from December 2023, whereas Phase 2 from BKC to Cuffe Parade will be ready by July 2024. Once fully operational, it will carry 17 lakh passengers per day.
