The Mumbai Monorail is set to resume operations later this month after receiving final safety clearance following an extensive overhaul. Services on the 19.54-km route from Chembur to Sant Gadge Maharaj Chowk (Jacob Circle) were suspended in September 2025 due to a series of technical failures that raised safety concerns. The Maha Mumbai Metro Operation Corporation Limited (MMMOCL) has upgraded the fleet and implemented modern Communication-Based Train Control (CBTC) technology, which is expected to enhance operational capacity, safety, and efficiency. This marks the first time a retired Commissioner of Metro Railway Safety (CMRS), PS Baghel, has conducted a second round of inspections, which included thorough checks of trains, signaling systems, and operational aspects. Although such inspections are not typically mandated under the Indian Tramways Act, the authorities opted for this additional scrutiny due to previous failures. The monorail previously carried approximately 18,000 passengers daily, with ridership peaking at nearly 20,000 during the monsoon season, highlighting its importance in Mumbai's public transport system.
