The Ghatkopar-Versova Metro Blue Line 1 will shut services for 1 hour 45 minutes in the middle of the evening peak hour to facilitate the visit of Prime Minister to Gundavli station of Red Line 7 along the Western Express Highway for the opening of two new corridors of Mumbai Metro. The timings coincide with the Prime Minister’s visit.

Mumbai Metro issued a “service update” in this regard. “Since we are informing in advance, we expect commuters to adjust travel timings. In addition to covering through publications, we will have social media coverage, train and announcements at stations. Meticulous planning will ensure no chaos,” an official said.
