In India 1st, Mumbai metro to have private entry

MUMBAI: Metro 3 will become the first network in India to provide private pedestrian subway access linked to stations. The project has garnered the interest of eight private entities that will act as developers. Each of the six stations has three developers interested across its 32-km-long underground corridor.

These private entities will have exclusive rights that will allow their employees as well as clients to use the subway that will be connected to the stations. Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation (MMRC), which is executing this corridor, has plans to open the Phase I (Aarey to BKC) by December 2023 and the entire network upto Cuffe Parade from July 2024.
