Mumbai Metro Line-4’s Track Work Begins at Majiwada
Apurvakriti Infrastructure on Saturday began track plinth casting work at Majiwada for Mumbai Metro’s 32.32 km Line-4 and 2.88 km Line-4A (Green Line) which will connect Wadala – Kasarvadavali – Gaimukh through 34 elevated stations.
Apurvakriti is responsible for installing ballastless tracks from Package CA-161 at Line 4 & 4A’s 15.77 km northern section between Mulund Fire Station (Ch. 18929.611) and Gaimukh (Ch. 18929.611 M), including the siding track at Gaimukh Station.
The line’s viaduct & 15 stations en route here are under construction by TPL – CHEC JV (Package CA-11: Mulund Fire Station – Majiwada), Reliance – Astaldi JV (Package CA-12: Majiwada – Kasarvadavali) and J Kumar Infraprojects (Package CA-54: Kasarvadavali – Gaimukh).
Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) had awarded a Rs. 21.88 crore contract for CA-161 to Apurvakriti Infrastructure in September 2023 with a 2 year track installation deadline.
Bidding is underway for Line-4’s second track contract (Package CA-168) for ballastless track installation work between Bhakti Park (Wadala) and Mulund Fire Station. Technical bids for it are currently scheduled to open on September 25.
MMRDA had re-invited bids for Line-4’s 234 coach rolling stock & signaling contract (Package CA-234) in February 2024, and technical bids for it are currently scheduled to open on October 1.
Looking at the current progress and pending procurement of critical systems, at this point I see Mumbai’s Green Line opening for commercial operations no sooner than Q4 2027 which is a shame since civil contracts were awarded way back in March 2018.
