    Metro One ridership goes up by 40k after Gokhale bridge closure

    The closure of Gopal Krishna Gokhale bridge in Andheri on November 3 has led to an increase in the ridership of Metro One.
    Commuters have been demanding additional two compartments on the Metro One route for the last few months.
    Karan Jotwani, co-founder, of Lokhandwala Oshiwara Citizens Association said, “We have written to various authorities, including the MMOPL to increase the number of compartments on this metro route.
    We have been continuously monitoring the ridership trends and have a train on standby to start additional services due to the surge in footfall.
    However, as of now, the current ridership is only 73% of 5.20 lakh.
    The current shift is the result of a sudden decision taken by the authorities.”
