The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) on Friday said that 63 per cent of the work on the three-tier Medetia Nagar metro station of Metro-line 9 was completed.


The MMRDA in a release said that the Medetia Nagar metro station of Metro-Line 9 has three tiers in which the first-tier is a flyover for vehicles, the concourse level on second-tier and the platform level is on third-tier. 


"The total height of this station is 35 meters from road level. This station is 63.63 per cent completed, also all cast in situ elements with all piers upto platform level are completed. The pier cap erection work is in full swing. All stations work in this alignment is 51 per cent completed," the MMRDA said.

MMRDA is constructing a 10.58 km Mumbai Metro-line 9 consisting of eight stations connecting Mumbai suburbs to Mira-Bhayandar city. 

This line will have two interchange Metro stations – the first is at Dahisar (E), which will interchange with the operational Metro Line-7 (Gundavali to Dahisar (E)) and Metro Line-2A (Andheri (W) to Dahisar (E)), and the second is at Miragaon Metro station with the upcoming Metro Line-10 (Gaimukh to Shivaji Chowk).

"Integration with different transport systems in Mumbai is a challenging part as Mumbai never sleeps. Metro Line 9 will be the finest example of an integrated transport System of Mumbai Metropolitan Region. After the completion of Metro projects the pattern of Travel in MMR  will be much more robust, connected & sustainable," MMRDA Commissioner S V R Srinivas said.

Meanwhile, the MMRDA had recently said that it will link large housing societies, busy office complexes and public hubs along the new Metro corridors to skywalks as a part of last mile connectivity. The two in the plan now are Oberoi Mall and NESCO.

The Metro Lines pass the Western Express Highway and the Link Road and have a station almost every half a km, which gives a good opportunity for firms, complexes and hubs around it to get directly linked to the new mass transit modes. While Red Line 7 starts from Gundavali on the WEH, it reaches Dahisar to take a turn and return to DN Nagar on Link Road at Andheri west station on the Yellow Line 2A.

While the Yellow Line has 17 stations, the Red Line has 14 stations. With 22 six-car trains running on the corridor, the total number of passenger capacity per train is 2,308 passengers; 310 seating and 1,998 standing.
