The Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation has launched the new 100-metre foot overbridge connecting the CSMIA–T2 Metro Station on Metro Line 3 to Terminal 2. This foot overbridge allows passengers to bypass road traffic and walk directly from the Metro station to the airport’s check-in area. Metro Line 3 or the Aqua Line is the first fully underground metro route in Mumbai.
The bridge, built 23 meters above ground with structural steel, links Lift Entry/Exit A1 of the Metro station directly to the terminal building.
The structure is 4.3 meters wide and 3 meters tall, and it lies above the ongoing work on Metro Line 7A.
In a post on X, the MMRDA wrote, “Good news for flyers! No more rushing through traffic before your flight! Now, from #CSMIA-T2 Metro Station – Airport Terminal-2 in just a few steps. The newly built 100-meter Foot Over Bridge, constructed by #MMRDA, connects Lift Entry/Exit A1 at ground level straight to the terminal. Fast, easy and convenient for all commuters!”
Thanking MMRDA for building the bridge, Ashwini Bhide, the Managing Director of
Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation Limited (MMRCL), stated that it provides ‘much-needed last-mile connectivity to Mumbai Airport from the Metro station.
