Mumbai Metro Line 9 is a major transport development for residents of Mira Road, Kashigaon and Mira-Bhayandar.

Latest development
A Times of India report published on October 21, 2026, said the second phase of Metro Line 9 was expected to be completed by December 2026. The reported phase extends from Kashigaon to Subhash Chandra Bose Stadium in Mira-Bhayandar.
December 2026 is a reported completion target, not a confirmed passenger-service opening date. The report does not establish a final opening day or operating timetable.
What could the extension mean for commuters?
Additional Metro connectivity may give residents more options for reaching destinations within the region and connecting with other transport services. The practical benefit will depend on the stations that become operational, interchange arrangements, service frequency, station access and last-mile connections. Until passenger services are formally announced, commuters should continue planning journeys using currently operating transport.
What should residents monitor?
- Official construction and commissioning announcements.
- Trial-run announcements and any safety clearances.
- Confirmed passenger-service opening dates.
- Station access and interchange arrangements.
- Final operating hours and service frequency.
A construction milestone does not automatically mean that tickets are available or passengers can board.
