The MMRDA has decided to extend the Wadala-Thane Metro IV up to GPO and the line will cater to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus. The proposed 8-km extension is to be built largely underground. Going by the Mumbai Railway Vikas Corporation's (MRVC) plans for the Panvel-CSMT hi-speed corridor, the routes will run parallel to each other between Wadala and CSMT. At a meeting between CM Devendra Fadnavis and railway minister Piyush Goyal on January 12, it was decided that there was no point in replicating routes that will cater to the same commuter pockets. MMRDA and MRVC will jointly work that out," metropolitan commissioner U P S Madan said that it is ideal that the Harbour line corridor comes up to CSMT because this network will also provide connectivity to the Navi Mumbai airport. The Metro corridor will cater to the eastern suburbs and Thane. Wadala will soon emerge as a major hub for transport as besides Metro IV, it will also be an important junction for monorail. Also, Eastern Freeway is close to the area and that MMRDA has also planned to build a BKC like business district in Wadala with space earmarked for residences too.
