Cyclone Tauktae: Mumbai monorail services suspended, local trains services disrupted

@the_news_21

Cyclone Tauktae is intensifying in Mumbai so as a precautionary measure the monorail services in the city were suspended for the day, the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) said. A tweet on Mumbai Monorail’s official Twitter handle said: “As a precautionary measure against the tropical cyclone Tauktae, Mumbai Monorail has suspended all the operations for a day. This was a prompt decision taken for the safety of the commuters. We regret any inconvenience caused.”

Even the local train service was disrupted between suburban Ghatkopar and Vikhroli as a tree branch fell on a train heading towards neighbouring Thane. “Due to gusty winds, tree branches fallen on OHE and EMU local train between Ghatkopar- Vikroli section on Down slow line. Slow line trains diverted on fast line between Matunga- Mulund stations. Only one train going towards Thane held up in the section b/w Ghatkopar-Vikroli,” the Central Railway said.
