Trains will run from 6:30 am to 11:00 pm every day.
The Aqua Line aims to dramatically cut commuter travel time, with speeds of up to 90 km/h.
The Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation (MMRC) supervises this gigantic project, which has cost more than Rs 37,000 crores.
The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) will handle operations and maintenance to ensure passenger safety. The contract with DMRC lasts ten years.
Reduced traffic congestion: The Aqua Line will offer a much-needed alternative to vehicle travel.
What was formerly a two-hour road journey will now take only 50 minutes by metro
The underground metro would smoothly connect vital regions of Mumbai.
The first part of the Aqua Line launched this month
The entire project, including the second tunnel phase, is scheduled to be completed in the next eight months.
