Mumbai Metro Update: New Lines, Stations and What's Coming
Aqua Line, Gold Line, and the expanding Metro network — a snapshot of what is open and what is opening soon.
Mumbai's metro network is finally hitting its stride. Multiple lines are now operational, more are weeks away, and the long-awaited underground stretch is reshaping how the city moves.
What's running now
- Line 2A & Line 7 (Yellow & Red): Dahisar to Andheri belt fully active.
- Line 3 (Aqua): Underground stretch opened in phases — Aarey to BKC live, full BKC–Cuffe Parade coming soon.
- Line 1: The original Versova–Ghatkopar workhorse.
What's next
Line 8 (Gold) will connect CSMIA to NMIA — a true airport-to-airport metro. Extensions into Navi Mumbai and Thane are also under construction, with stations being finished through this year.
