The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority has launched commercial operations for Phase 1 of Metro Line 9 and Metro Line 2B, expanding the city's transit infrastructure. The new metro lines aim to reduce travel times for thousands of commuters and provide faster and more efficient commuting options.

The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority launched commercial operations for Phase 1 of Metro Line 9 and Metro Line 2B on April 7, 2026. Metro Line 9 connects Dahisar East to Kashigaon in Mira Road, featuring four new stations. The new stretch aims to cut commute times between Mira-Bhayander and Andheri by nearly an hour. Train services will run from 5:50 am to 11 pm, with peak-hour frequency of under six minutes. The integration with existing Line 7 allows for a seamless journey from the northern suburbs to the city's commercial belt. The launch also brought changes to the existing network, with Metro Lines 2A and 7 now operating as independent corridors.
