Green Line 10 (extension) of the Mumbai Metro, also referred to as the Gaimukh-Shivaji Chowk (Mira Road) corridor, is part of the metro system for the city of Mumbai, India. This line is fully elevated.

In February 2017, the MMRDA announced that the DMRC was preparing a detailed project report (DPR) on Metro 10. Preliminary plans were prepared jointly by MMRDA and DMRC. The line will run parallel to Thane - Bhayandar Highway, and will join metro route no 9 at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Chowk. The project is estimated to cost ₹3,600 crore (US$530 million).^[1]^[2]^[3]

Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Mumbai on September 7 laid the foundation stone of Mumbai Metro Lines 10 the 9.2 km (5.7 mi) long Gaimukh to Shivaji Chowk (Mira Road) Metro-10.It is expected to be completed in 2028 and is expected to provide interconnectivity among Mira-Bhayander, Thane, Borivali and rest of Mumbai. It will reduce the current travel time by between 50% and 75% depending on road conditions.

Planning

The proposed Metro Rail at Mumbai has one corridor covering an approximate distance of about 9.209 km (5.722 mi). The corridor will have four stations, all elevated. Some sections of the corridor are underground. Almost all the stations are on the road stations.

The stations have been located so as to serve passenger requirements and to enable convenient integration with other modes of transport. Efforts have been made to propose station locations at a uniform inter-station distance as feasible. The average inter-station distance is ≈2 km, though it varies from 0.873 km to 4.34 km due to land-use and topographic reasons. The minimum inter-station distance is between Shivaji Chowk (Mira Road) Station and Kashimira Metro Station i.e. 872.941 m. The maximum inter-station distance is between Gaimukh Reti Bundar and Varsova Char Phata i.e. 4342.345 m.

Station Type

The stations have been planned with side platforms to avoid the viaduct structure from flaring in and out at stations, which obstructs the road traffic below. Care has been taken to locate stations in straight alignment. However, in some stations, site constraints have become the deciding criteria and a curve of 1000m radius has been introduced in the platform.
