Maharashtra has cleared the Rs 17,724.99-crore Mumbai Metro Line 13 project connecting Mira-Bhayandar with Vasai-Virar, marking a major infrastructure addition to the northern part of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR). The 25.03-km corridor is expected to create a new east-west public transport link, with implications for residential markets along the route. The corridor will have 16 stations, comprising 13 elevated and three underground stations. Its 4.92-km integrated road-and-metro bridge across Vasai Creek will provide a new east-west connection through Panju Island, linking two property markets that currently differ significantly. Metro Line 13 to connect Mira Road, Vasai, Naigaon, Nalasopara and Virar Of the total 25.03-km Metro 13 corridor, 21.78 km will be elevated and 3.25 km underground. The line will connect residential areas across Mira Road, Vasai, Naigaon, Nalasopara and Virar. The corridor will also provide interchange facilities with suburban railway stations at Naigaon, Nalasopara and Virar. A connection with Metro Line 9 is proposed at Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Stadium. Bus connectivity is also planned at all stations, which could help improve last-mile access around the corridor. A metro depot has been proposed at Chikhal Dongari, while the project will require around 24.84 hectares of land. The project is targeted for completion within five years after approval. Authorities have also been directed to complete land acquisition and access-road works within the next six months.
Rs 17,725 crore project includes a 4.92-km Vasai Creek bridge One of the most significant components of Mumbai Metro Line 13 is the 4.92-km integrated six-lane road-and-metro bridge across Vasai Creek. The bridge will connect Panju Island and provide a new road and public transport link between the Mira-Bhayandar and Vasai-Virar sides. The road component will have three lanes on each side. The bridge is particularly important because the project is designed to address an existing east-west connectivity gap. The government expects the project to reduce road travel time by nearly half. For the real estate market, this connectivity improvement is relevant because it brings residential locations in Thane and Palghar closer from a daily-commute perspective. Property at a glance: Key markets along Metro Line 13 The proposed corridor passes through several residential markets with different price levels. Square Yards data for June 2026 shows a considerable difference between average asking prices in Mira Road and locations across the Vasai-Virar belt.
