Mumbai is building a new metro line, called Metro Line 9, to help people travel easier.
This 'red line' will connect Dahisar to Mira-Bhayandar.
The project is mostly done and should open in phases soon.
When finished, it will make it much faster to get around, especially for people who travel from Mira Road to other areas.
The trains will have eight coaches and are expected to run from 6 AM to 10 PM.
It will connect to other metro lines making travel across the city simpler.
The metro will also decrease road traffic and pollution.
Mumbai Metro Line 9 is a double-decker red line extension from Dahisar to Mira-Bhayandar.
The line will span approximately 13.58 km with 10 stations.
Civil work is 96-97% complete, and system integration is 75% complete as of mid-2025.
Phase 1 (Dahisar–Kashigaon) is expected to open by the end of 2025, with the full line projected by late 2026.
