The Green Line or Line 2 is the second metro corridor to connect Kolkata with Howrah through an underwater metro line below the Hooghly River. As per original plan, the Green line length was projected to be 14.67 km (9.12 mi), with 8.9 km (5.5 mi) underground and 5.77 km (3.59 mi) elevated. After a major route extension in 2013 the length increased to 16.55 km (10.28 mi), with 5.77 km (3.59 mi) being elevated and 10.81 km (6.72 mi) underground.
