The newly inaugurated Mumbai Metro Aqua Line-3 (Aarey JVLR-Acharya Atre Chowk) on Day 2 recorded a ridership of 32,725 till 8 pm on Sunday.

On Saturday, a total ridership of 32,791 was recorded on the day 1 after the new metro line's inauguration. Of this, 16,377 commuters travelled on the extended stretch from Bandra-Kurla Complex (BKC) to Acharya Atrey Chowk (Worli Naka). 


Previously, the Aqua Line, Mumbai Metro Line 3, operated only on the suburban stretch from JVLR Aarey to BKC, which was inaugurated last year.


The Aqua Line-3, which is Mumbai's first underground metro rail, entered the Island city on Friday, negotiating the path deep under the Mithi River, and was extended from BKC to Worli.

The underground corridor will provide metro connectivity to offices in the Worli, Lower Parel, and Prabhadevi areas from BKC, the biggest business hub in the city. It will also ease the commute to Siddhivinayak and Shitaladevi temples, Mahim Dargah, and recreational places such as Shivaji Park and Ravindra Natya Mandir.

The trains on the Mumbai Metro-3 operate between 6.30 am and 10.30 pm at a headway of six minutes and 20 seconds. On Sundays, the trains will run from 8.30 am to 10.30 pm.

The stations between Kotak BKC and Acharya Atre Chowk include Dharavi, Sitaladevi, Dadar, Siddhivinayak and Worli.
