Maha Mumbai Metro Corporation Strengthens Monorail Safety Measures
The Maha Mumbai Metro Operation Corporation Ltd. (MMMOCL) has implemented strong safety protocols across the Monorail network to prioritise the safety and comfort of every Mumbaikar. These measures include regulated passenger entry to prevent overcrowding, with each train designed to carry a fixed capacity of 102–104 tonnes. To further enhance security, every train now has a dedicated security guard and a trained technician on board throughout the journey.
Emergency preparedness has been strengthened by clearly marking eight ventilation windows, two in each coach, which are ready for use when needed. Large and prominent information boards have been installed inside each coach to guide passengers on entry, exit, and emergency procedures. Additionally, every Monorail train undergoes thorough technical inspections daily to maintain high safety and operational standards.
