According to a Indian Express report, The authority has earmarked 15.02 hectare of open and vacant salt pan land in Kanjurmarg for the Metro Line 6 depot. The erstwhile state government led by Uddhav Thackeray had shifted the Metro Line 3 depot in Kanjurmarg and there was a plan to integrate four Metro lines Underground Metro Line 3 (Colaba-Bandra-SEEPZ), Metro Line 4 (Gaimukh to Kasarvadavali Wadala), Metro Line 6 (Swami Samarth Nagar to Vikhroli), and Metro Line 14 (Kanjurmarg to Badlapur) via a common depot at Kanjurmarg.
