History

Marol Naka Metro Station is part of Mumbai Metro Line 1 (Blue Line), which was constructed under Phase 1 of the Mumbai Metro project. The station’s development began in 2008 as part of a public-private partnership between the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) and Reliance Infrastructure, aimed at easing traffic congestion between Versova and Ghatkopar. Delays in land acquisition, utility relocation, and regulatory clearances postponed the station’s completion until 2014. The station was inaugurated on June 8, 2014, by then-Prime Minister Narendra Modi alongside the full Line 1 corridor. Located near the Marol Fire Brigade and Andheri-Kurla Road, it became a vital hub for commuters in Andheri East, connecting industrial and commercial areas like Saki Naka and the Marol Industrial Estate. In 2022, the MMRDA proposed integrating the station with the planned Line 2B (DN Nagar–Mandale) to enhance connectivity with suburban areas.
