Line 4 (Green Line) is an under construction rapid transit metro line of the Mumbai Metro in the city of Mumbai, Maharashtra, India.
The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) and a consortium of international companies are developing the line.{{cite web |title=Mumbai Metro Line 4 |url=https://mmrda.maharashtra.gov.in/projects/transport/metro-line-4/overview |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180801190234/https://mmrda.maharashtra.gov.in/metro-line-4 |archive-date=1 August 2018 |access-date=15 November 2018 |website=www.mmrda.maharashtra.gov.in |publisher=MMRDA official website}}
The {{convert|32.32|km|mi|abbr=on}} line is planned to be fully elevated, and is expected to consist of 32 stations from Wadala (Mumbai) to Kasarvadavali (Ghodbunder road, Thane) via Chembur, Ghatkopar, Vikhroli, Kanjurmarg,Bhandup, Mulund and Teen Hath Naka, a popular traffic crossing in Thane.

Planning
In June 2015, the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) proposed building a {{Cvt|32|km|2}} Wadala-Thane-Kasarvadavali metro line as part of a plan to build six new metro lines at a total estimated cost of {{INRConvert|64000|c}}.{{Cite web |date=2015-06-16 |title=Over 130 km of Metro lines to criss-cross city by 2020 |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/mumbai/over-130-km-of-metro-lines-to-criss-cross-city-by-2020/ |access-date=2023-07-09 |website=The Indian Express |language=en}} Line 4 was approved in June 2016,{{cite web |title=Maharashtra Cabinet Gives Go-Ahead For Two Metro Lines |url=http://www.ndtv.com/mumbai-news/maharashtra-cabinet-gives-go-ahead-for-two-metro-lines-1467281 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161018205738/http://www.ndtv.com/mumbai-news/maharashtra-cabinet-gives-go-ahead-for-two-metro-lines-1467281 |archive-date=18 October 2016 |access-date=14 October 2016 |website=NDTV.com}} and was estimated to cost {{INRConvert|14549|c}}.{{cite web|title=Mumbai to get two more Metro Rails|url=http://www.business-standard.com/article/news-ians/mumbai-to-get-two-more-metro-rails-116092701141_1.html|website=Business Standard India|access-date=14 October 2016|date=27 September 2016|archive-date=18 October 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161018202852/http://www.business-standard.com/article/news-ians/mumbai-to-get-two-more-metro-rails-116092701141_1.html|url-status=live}}
The foundation stone for Metro 4 was laid by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 24 December 2016.{{cite web|title=MMRDA invites civil work bids for two Metro projects|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/mmrda-invites-civil-work-bids-for-two-metro-projects/articleshow/56341075.cms|website=The Times of India|access-date=10 February 2017|archive-date=12 February 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170212043828/http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/mmrda-invites-civil-work-bids-for-two-metro-projects/articleshow/56341075.cms|url-status=live}} The Maharashtra Coastal Zone Management Authority granted Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) clearance to the project in February 2017.

A total of 48 piers are proposed to be built in the CRZ II zone.

The MMRDA used a drone to carry out survey work for Metro 4. The drones were fitted with 360 degrees camera that provide up to {{Convert|3|mm}} accuracy.

= Depot =
The depot for the line is located at Mogharpada in Thane. It will also serve as the depot for Line 10 and Line 11. The depot has a maximum capacity for 64 stabling lines, half of which are reserved for future use, in addition to 10 inspection bays lines and 10 workshop lines. The depot also houses the operational control centre, administrative building, maintenance and workshop building, auxiliary substation, and staff quarters.
= Pocket track =
The Bhakti Park station will have a pocket track to enable trains to park off the main line. Line 4's depot at Mogharpada also serves Line 10 and Line 11 which creates the possibility of trains having to run without passengers from the depot to Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus during morning hours. The pocket track enables trains to park off the main line without traveling to the last station on the line.{{Cite web |date=2023-03-17 |title=MMRDA to construct pocket track at Mumbai's Bhakti Park Metro Line 4 station |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/mumbai/mmrda-to-construct-pocket-track-at-mumbais-bhakti-park-metro-line-4-station-8502735/ |access-date=2023-11-04 |website=The Indian Express |language=en}}
