The Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation Limited (MMRCL) has released first visuals of the newly built Dharavi Metro Station, part of Mumbai Metro’s Aqua Line 3. Constructed using the cut-and-cover method along the banks of the Mithi River, the station faced multiple challenges, including land acquisition issues, traffic diversions, and the relocation of utilities.
Officials have confirmed that full-scale inspections are scheduled around April 10, and services may begin by this weekend or early next week, depending on the outcome.
New images shared by Mumbai Metro 3 on X (formerly Twitter) reveal the elevator, corridors, and ticket-checking zones, showcasing the modern infrastructure of the station. The Dharavi Station is a crucial component of the 33.5 km long Aqua Line, which will connect Cuffe Parade, BKC, and Aarey JVLR through 27 underground stations.
Current operational stretch: 12.69 km between Aarey JVLR and BKC (since October 7, 2024)
Upcoming Phase 2A section: 9.77 km between BKC and Worli – final checks underway
Final stretch: 13 km to Cuffe Parade, expected by July 2025
