Mumbai's Chembur - Wadala monorail section is India's first. These air-conditioned trains are equipped with emergency-warning devices. It flaunts 3 colors : green, pink and sky- blue.
Mumbai’s monorail service, which had turned into an infrastructure white elephant that was rapidly losing ridership, is slowly making a turnaround, registering its highest passenger usage in the last six years. In the financial year 2022-23, a total of 36.36 lakh commuters have used the service so far, which is the highest in the last six years.
While the number is no way close to the 61.66 lakh passenger count that was registered in 2015-16, the total number of commuters using the service is gradually picking up.
The decision to introduce Monorail, as a feeder service to the Mass Rapid Transit System and cater to crowded and narrow areas was taken in September, 2008 by the Authority. The 20 km long corridor from Chembur - Wadala - Sant Gadge Maharaj Chowk is not only Mumbai's but India's first Monorail project.
MMRDA appointed M/s. RITES as a consultant for preparation of Techno-Economic feasibility report as well as providing assistance in Bid process management. The Techno-Economic and Financial Feasibility study for the project was completed by M/s. RITES and a notification dated 4th November, 2008 was published by Government of Maharashtra for implementation of the project under Tramway Act. Through global bidding M/s. Larsen & Toubro and Scomi Engineering, Bhd Malaysia (LTSE) consortium was appointed as contractor for the execution of the project. The cost of the project was Rs. 2,460 cr. (excluding taxes) and has been divided into two phases. While the first phase from Wadala to Chembur is 8.8km long and the second phase comprises of 11.20 km from Wadala to Sant Gadge Maharaj Chowk. The work on Phase-I i.e. Wadala to Chembur was completed and opened for public on 2nd February, 2014.
As, M/s. LTSE failed miserably to complete and commission the Monorail project in time; MMRDA in the larger public interest terminated the contract and took over systems and operations on 29th December 2018. The Second Phase Wadala to Sant Gadge Maharaj Chowk (11.20 km) and accordingly the entire line of 17 Station was opened for the public on 4th March, 2019.
