Mumbai Metro 6, the Pink Line, will run 15.2 km from Swami Samarth Nagar in Lokhandwala to Vikhroli via the Eastern Express Highway, with 13 elevated stations: Swami Samarth Nagar, Adarsh Nagar, Jogeshwari (West), JVLR Junction, Shyam Nagar, Mahakali Caves, SEEPZ Village, Saki Vihar Road, Rambaug (Powai), Powai Lake, IIT Powai, Kanjurmarg (West) and Vikhroli (EEH). Operations are expected by late 2026. The line aims to shift 30% of current road users to the metro and reduce JVLR travel times by 30–45 minutes.

As of late 2024, the project was about 66% complete, with 71% of the viaduct and 52% of station work finished. Station structures were expected to reach 75% completion by June 2025, with civil work due to conclude by mid-2025.

Service will use 108 metro cars in six-coach trains with CBTC signalling, operating 6 am–10 pm. Frequencies are 5–7 minutes at peak and 8–10 minutes off-peak; fares are expected to range from ₹10 to ₹50. Interchanges: Line 2A at Adarsh Nagar, Line 7 at JVLR Junction, Line 3 at SEEPZ Village, Line 4 at Kanjurmarg West, Western Railway at Jogeshwari and Central Railway at Kanjurmarg. Smart cards and QR-code tokens will be used. First proposed in Mumbai’s 2004 metro master plan, the project underwent approvals, project reports and aerial surveys. BMC collaboration enabled a flyover integrated with metro infrastructure.

BMC expects the 206-metre flyover linking Yari Road and Lokhandwala Back Road in Andheri West to be ready by December 2027. Additional municipal commissioner (projects) Abhijit Bangar inspected the site near Amarnath Tower on Monday and directed officials to meet the deadline.

The bridge will support an 18.3-metre-wide Development Plan road on either side of Kavthe Creek. It comprises a 110-metre main bridge and approach roads measuring 40 metres on the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Nagar side and 56 metres near Ama. The link will connect Yari Road, Panch Marg and Versova with Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Nagar, Lokhandwala Complex and Samarth Nagar. Travel time is expected to fall from 30 minutes to 10 minutes, easing traffic.

Forty-two families in Siddharth Nagar, Andheri West, have been ordered to vacate within 15 days for the bridge connecting Yari Road and Lokhandwala. The September 26 notice from the Mumbai suburban district collector’s office calls their homes unauthorised structures; non-compliance may lead to forcible demolition, with costs recovered as land revenue. The BMC invoked Section 50(3) of the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code, 1966, under a 2008 state circular, rather than the Slum Rehabilitation Act, 1995. A July 24 inspection found 41 huts and a temple had re-emerged on land cleared in 2011. Residents say they have lived there since 1993 and received no rehabilitation; they say 800 huts are in Siddharth Nagar, but 42 are affected.

The 393-metre bridge over Kavathe Creek will link Yari Road and Versova with Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Nagar, Lokhandwala Complex and Samarth Nagar. It includes a 110-metre single-span steel arch, a 166-metre Yari Road approach and a 117-metre Lokhandwala approach. Intended to ease congestion and improve east-west connectivity, it is expected to cut Versova–Lokhandwala travel time from 30 to 10 minutes and provide an alternative route with the upcoming Versova–Bandra Sea Link. The BMC has Union environment ministry approval to cross 0.21 hectares of mangrove forest.
