The monorail project was seen as a better solution in areas where roads are unable to be widened due to structures on the sides. It reduces property loss to residents, as well as lowering land acquisition costs for the government.
The monorail is eco-friendly and easily accessible and causes less noise pollution compared to metro rail systems. It also reduces traffic congestion and offers high reliability and manoeuvrability for passengers.
Passengers travelling to suburban locations are benefitted as the monorail provides interconnectivity to suburban railway stations, including Mahalaxmi Lower Parel, Curry Road, Dadar and Wadala.
Details of the project
MMRDA proposed the monorail project in September 2008 with a plan to construct eight lines. The 19.54km line features 17 stations and traverses via Sant Gadge Maharaj Chowk, also known as Jacob Circle-Wadala-Chembur.
The monorail passes through Wadala, GTB Nagar, Antop Hill, Acharya Atre Nagar, Wadala Bridge, Dadar, Naigaon, Ambedkar Nagar, Mint Colony, Lower Parel, Chinchpokli, Jacob Circle and Chembur.
