As with any mass transit system there are advantages and disadvantages to the Mumbai Metro.
Advantages
· Congestion easing
· Ease of transport to and from outlying regions
· Air conditioning
· Safe transport
· Speed
· Modernity
· Accessibility
Disadvantages
· Cost
· Disruption
· Loss of control
In Depth Advantages
· Congestion easing
Mumbai is India's biggest city, and the Andheri-Kurla Road for instance is one of the busiest roads in the country, especially during monsoon season, when driving can be more difficult. The Metro would be able to take almost three times as many people as would be able to drive in the same space, meaning a lot fewer road users. This in turn would allow the remaining road users to get to their destinations faster, and allow the Metro users to meet them there.
Outlying regions
The Metro's route is set to include several outlying areas, and as such will give people living in those areas opportunities in the city that would otherwise be denied them.
Air conditioning
The trains will be air conditioned, to make traveling, even in India's heat, a pleasant experience.
Safe transport
The trains will also feature CCTV, to discourage crime on the Metro.
Speed
There will be a train every 3.5 minutes (and every 3 minutes at peak time), with the most popular journeys taking around 21 minutes.
Modernity
The fact that the Metro is being built in the 21st century make it smoother, safer, faster, and cleaner than practically any other Metro on the planet.
Accessibility
The Metro will be accessible to wheelchair-users, which (given parking restrictions) is hardly the case with car journeys.
In depth disadvantages
Cost
The cost of construction is being met by GE and other investors, but city-dwellers may well not either have the resources or the inclination to pay for Metro journeys.
Disruption
Any long-term (15 year) construction project covering 148 Km will cause significant disruption to the lives of locals during the whole course of construction.
Loss of control
Drivers always have control over their journeys. People will have to adjust to allowing others to control their journey.
Have a nice journey !!!
