MUMBAI: The improvement in travel quality will be gradual, starting from April.

Currently, of the eight train sets available, six are operated daily and ferry around 16,500 passengers from Chembur-Wadala-Jacob Circle. The Maha Mumbai Metro Operation Corporation Limited (MMMOCL), an arm of MMRDA, operates and maintains a fleet of eight trains, which is scheduled to more than double to 18 by August.

"The execution of a comprehensive revival plan has begun," said an MMRDA spokesperson. "As part of this, MMRDA will utilise eight existing rakes and introduce 10 state-of-the-art new ones. Ultimately, 12 rakes will be operational, with two rakes on standby and the remaining four for scheduled maintenance."
