    @Metrorailguy

    Metro maybe not be enough in long term. Mumbai also needs RRTS lines like NRCTC.
    I can think of atleat 4 lines :
    1. Colaba – BKC – Virar
    2. BKC – Thane – Kalyan
    3. Virar – Alibaug (along Muti -modal corridor)
    4. Mumbai – Pune (in addition to Mumbai-Pune HSR, maybe same tracks can be used for
    both RRTS & HSR)
    BKC can act as Central node (like Sarai Kale Kkan) in Delhi

    What is your view?
    Can you kindly drop suggestions to MMRDA

    @ClevinGomes : 3 lines are same like you said. 1 line CSMT to Virar has long been discussed as elevated Suburban. This could be made RRTS line.

    @Yuvraj : Regional Rapid Transit System.
