Mumbai Metro – Line 2B (Yellow Line)

Mumbai Metro Line 2B (D.N. NAGAR – MANDALE) metro corridor is 23.643 KM fully elevated and consists of 20 stations from D.N. NAGAR to MANDALE. The Metro Line 2B is a subsection of the Metro Line 2 Plan of the Dahisar-Bandra-Mankhurd line.

After many changes in the corridor route stretch, MMRDA finally decided that Metro Line 2 will cover the Dahisar-Bandra-Mankhurd route. However, after detailed feasibility conducted by an agency on the construction of the metro line 2, MMRDA announced that the line would be build in two sections – Dahisar-D.N. Nagar (Metro 2A) and DN Nagar-Mankhurd (Metro 2B). The aim of the project is to connect Dahisar in the northwest to Mankhurd in the east. 

The Metro 2B corridor plan covers 20 stations – ESIC Nagar, Prem Nagar, Indira Nagar, Nanavati Hospital, Khira Nagar, Saraswat Nagar, National College, Bandra Metro, Income Tax office (ITO), BKC, IL&FS, BKC, MTNL, BKC, S.G. Barve Marg, Kurla (E), EEH, Chembur, Diamond Garden, Shivaji Chowk, BSNL, Mankhurd, and Mandale. The commuter can interchange to Metro Line 7 at ESIC Nagar Station,  Metro Line 3 at Income Tax office (ITO), BKC Station, and Metro Line 4 at Eastern Express Highway Station. 

The construction work on the corridor commenced in April 2018. Metro Line 2B was divided into four packages – ESIC Nagar to Khira Nagar, Saraswat Nagar to ILFS, MTNL Metro to Chembur, and Diamond Garden to Mandale. Construction began in April 2018.
