InfrastructureMetro Line 13: Transforming Connectivity
The Metro Line 13 Vasai-Virar (Purple Line) connecting Mira-Bhayandar to Virar has been redesigned into a 24.9-km corridor with 17 stations (14 elevated, 3 underground). The revised project cost has jumped 88% to ₹17,725 crore after adding underground sections, and as of mid-2026 the proposal is awaiting final clearance from the Maharashtra state government before construction can begin.
