The MMRDA hopes to complete the civil work for the corridor in 18 months. The Mumbai suburban collector has already handed over 15 hectares of land in Kanjurmarg for the Metro 6 project, and MMRDA will soon float tenders for the construction of the depot so that work can begin shortly after the monsoon. The corridor will have a Continuous Automatic Train Control System based on a 'Communication-based Train Control System.' This system includes Automatic Train Protection, Automatic Train Operation, and Automatic Train Supervision sub-systems that use radio communication between track sides and trains.
