The first train will depart from Aarey station at 5:55 AM towards Acharya Atre Chowk station. The revised train timings will greatly benefit airport goers especially. The timing may be revised further as full operations likely to be commenced by end of this month or early october in Navratri believed to be in Dasherra as per sources.

Under the final phase of the Metro-3 corridor, the Commissioner of Metro Railway Safety (CMRS) is conducting inspections on the 10-km stretch between Acharya Atre Chowk in Worli and Cuffe Parade.

Passengers are likely to be able to travel from Colaba to Aarey on the Metro by Dussehra or the first week of October with CMRS certification in place.
