The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) has achieved a major milestone in the commissioning of Thane's first metro corridor, with the Research Designs and Standards Organisation (RDSO) granting the mandatory certification for the first phase of Metro Lines 4 and 4A.
According to officials, the certification was received on June 2, 2026, after a wait of nearly 209 days, marking a significant step towards the commencement of passenger operations on the corridor.
The Phase 1 stretch spans 10.5 km from Gaimukh to Cadbury Junction, covering 10 stations. Earlier, in September last year, trials and tests were conducted on the 4.4-km section comprising four stations — Gaimukh, Govaniwada, Kasarvadavali and Vijay Garden.
