With the view to connect the mainland to Mumbai through rail based mass transport MMRDA has planned a metro corridor from Prabhadevi to Sewri and further to the Mainland through Navi Mumbai to a suitable Location on the Panvel-Pen section having interchange stations and facilities with the existing and proposed rail system. Following are the advantages of the proposed MTHL-Metro Link.

• MTHL Metro Corridor will induce and accelerate the development on the main land.
• MTHL Metro will encourage mass transport and cater to the future travel demand of main land area.
• MTHL Metro will facilitate decongestion on other passenger time transport systems & fuel consumption saving.
