The Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) has shown interest in providing ODA loans. The Maharashtra government has approved loan guarantees to attract international funding for Metro projects, including Line 11.
What is the status of the project? What is the deadline?
Line 11 execution has been transferred from MMRDA to MMRCL.
Pre-construction steps such as securing finances, completing detailed design, appointing consultants, and tendering for civil works are ongoing.
Construction is expected to start around 2027.
It is projected to be completed around 2030.
Eco impact of Mumbai Metro-11
A draft Environmental Impact Assessment reports that the project (17.5 km fully underground except depot) will affect around 2,208 trees. The line requires environmental approvals because portions fall under coastal regulation zones.
Will Mumbai Metro-11 be linked to other Metros?
Line 4 (Wadala-Kasarvadavli) at Bhakti Park (Wadala)
Line 3 (Aqua Line) at CSMT
Line 11 may be extended to link with Line 3 at Dharavi, with two proposed new stations (including Sion). This aims to turn Dharavi into a major multi-modal transport hub integrating metro, suburban rail, and buses.
It will be linked to Monorail, and major suburban railway stations like Byculla and CSMT, making it a vital interchange route in the city's public transport network.
