The central and state government departments are expected to transfer land for the 23.3km proposed third Metro line from Hinjewadi-Shivajinagar by the first fortnight of January 2020. About 2 hectares of land (1.49 hectares from the state government and 0.96 hectares from teh Centre) were required for the project. Police wireless service department, Rajbhavan, MSEB, Agriculture college, Police recreational hall, COEP hostel, Civil court, Balewadi sports complex, revenue departments are the state government departments that will transfer land for this project for the running section, station and staircase for the elevated metro line. “From the central government departments, NCL, RBI, AIR, Central Bee Research Institutes, IMDA and LIC will have to transfer land mainly for the station area and staircase,” a PMRDA official said. The land parcels will be transferred to the concessionaire consortium of TRIL Urban Transport (a subsidiary of Tata Realty and Infrastructure) and Siemens Project Ventures. “Once 90% of land is transferred, work can commence on the Metro line,” another PMRDA official said.
