Mumbai Monorail Phase II is going to solve commute woes of travellers in the city. While the local train is a preferred mode of transportation, Mumbai monorail is set to make its mark in the city with its second phase getting inaugurated. It is a 19.54 km stretch of railroad, starting at Wadala and ending at Sant Gadge Maharaj Chowk. The monorail has now opened after a delay of 11 long years.
You can take the Monorail in Mumbai from 6 AM to 10 PM, and avoid all the hectic traffic and heat.
The project faced 11 years of delay because the route was mapped across extremely densely populated areas and a lot of illegal structures. Now that it is ready, the Monorail is estimated to take one lakh commuters every day. Phase 1 of the Monorail that ran from Chembur to Wadala used to cater to fifteen to seventeen thousand commuters daily.
With the extension of the Monorail, Mumbai residents and travellers can now use it to reach their destination in no time, thus the number of commuters is expected to increase.
