On Monday, heavy rains disrupted local train services between Wadala and Mankhurd, causing passengers to turn to the monorail, which has historically operated at a loss. The monorail, servicing routes to Chembur, Wadala, Dadar, Lower Parel, Lalbaug, and Mahalakshmi, experienced a notable 30% increase in ridership. Typically, 16,000 to 17,000 passengers use the monorail daily, but Monday saw over 21,000 passengers.
The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) built a 20 km monorail line between Chembur and Jacob Circle. Despite various efforts by the MMRDA to boost ridership and mitigate financial losses, the monorail route has struggled to attract more passengers.
