At present, Mumbai has only a single line of metro from Ghatkopar to Versova, a distance of around 40 mins. But the Development Authority has also accepted 2 new detailed projects, one for the 16.5 km Andheri East to Dahisar East Metro Corridor and the other for 18.6 km Dahisar to D.N. Nagar Metro Corridor.

Right Suresh..................
And it is prepared by the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation and has recommended these 2 corridors estimated at Rs. 4737 crore and Rs. 4994 crore respectively for the approval of the state government. The Authority has put forward this matter to the State raising of funds from various financial institutions such as World Bank, Japan International Cooperation Agency and other national and international financial institutions.

It was claimed that a part of the Versova-Andheri-Ghatkopar metro route would be thrown open to the public in March 2013. However, the ground level officials alleged that the time given by the CM was too optimistic.All the critical works like roofing of stations, electrical and telecommunication work are still pending. Furthermore, it is claimed that metro will be open to public by December 2013.
