1. Why do we need metro in Mumbai?

Due to the city’s geographical constraints and rapid population growth, road and rail infrastructure development has not been able to keep pace with growing demand over the past several decades. To reduce congestion in the city, Mass Rapid Transit System (MRTS) like Mumbai Metro is an ideal solution. Thisnot only reduces the travel time but also provides comfortable and non-polluting travel experience.

2. How is metro different from suburban trains or monorail?

A rapid transit system like metro is a technologically advanced public transport system which operates on rail tracks in an urban area with high capacity, high frequency, is fast and is segregated from other traffic – underground tunnels (subways) or elevated above street level (elevated transit line). This system is automated with respect to operations and since it has a dedicated right of way, it is able to provide high reliability to its users. Whereas, monorail is a rubber tyre guide way-based transportation system which is guided on a single beam, with a much lower carrying capacity.

3. What kind of metro network has been planned for Mumbai?

Like in Delhi, Mumbai Metro network has also been planned in phases. Versova to Ghatkopar via Andheri is the 1st metro line of Mumbai. As per Mumbai Master Plan available on MMRDA website following plan has been in discussion:
