Navi Mumbai residents can finally rejoice as the much-anticipated Navi Mumbai Metro Line-1 is all set for inauguration on October 30. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate this significant infrastructure project. The inauguration venue has been finalized and handed over to the security agency to ensure a smooth and secure event.

The inauguration ceremony is scheduled to take place at the Navi Mumbai International Airport site, a pivotal location for the city's transportation network.

The City and Industrial Corporation Development (CIDCO) has been proactive in ensuring passenger safety and the overall readiness of the metro system. CIDCO has officially communicated with MahaMetro, urging them to complete preparations, with a specific focus on passenger safety. CIDCO has deployed a dedicated team of engineers who have meticulously inspected all metro stations, assessing passenger safety measures and station facilities. Their findings have been documented for each station, and these observations are attached herewith for immediate attention.

CIDCO Stresses On Passenger Safety

The communication from CIDCO also stressed the importance of addressing the observations made during the inspections promptly. They have requested MahaMetro to undertake necessary rectifications in response to the observations and submit a compliance report to the concerned office without delay.

Previously, the inauguration was initially scheduled for Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit between October 15 and 17, but it was regrettably postponed. Now, with the October 30 inauguration date, the people of Navi Mumbai can look forward to the realization of this vital transportation project.
