T2 Metro Station’s direct connectivity at airport building soon
T2 Metro Station is soon to have a direct connectivity at airport building.
Currently, T2 has a temporary ramp to the main road on two sides
near the Sahar Cargo Complex road and bus stop outside the airport, and the other near the Sahar police station road on the opposite side. On examining the officials plan to improve connectivity
The long-walk and detour at T2 Airport Metro Station on the underground Aqua Line 3 may soon be a thing of the past.
As per an official on Tuesday, a new temporary walkway with direct connectivity to the airport building is being built.
In the midst of an inspection today, Wednesday, Aseem Kumar Gupta, Principal Secretary of the Urban Development Department of the Maharashtra government, instructed agencies involved in metro operations to facilitate a temporary walkway above the under-construction Metro Red Line 7 station to provide seamless connectivity and enhance the travel experience for commuters.
However, this is a very long, almost half-a-kilometer walk just to exit or enter the station, which is not advisable for senior citizens. Works on two other Mumbai Metro stations (Red Line 7 and Gold Line 8) are in progress on either side of the temporary walkway.
The station also features the tallest escalator in the country at 21 meters.
