The 37 long km metro line 2A and 7 once completely operational is largely believed to reduce the crowd on Mumbai suburban local trains both on central and western lines.
The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority(MMRDA) has expedited the Mumbai Metro Line 2A&7 work so as to open up the entire stretch by August this year as targeted. An official from MMRDA, who did not wish to be named, said that they have completed all work and only some final work of station touch up is ongoing. Meanwhile, the trial run on the remaining stretch will begin, he added.
