Mumbai Plans Ropeway to Connect Metro Line 3 to Film City
Mumbai is considering building a ropeway, like a cable car, to help people get around more easily.
It would connect a metro station to Film City, a place where movies are made.
This ropeway will help connect to areas that are hard to reach now, with hopes of carrying lots of people per hour.
The project is still being planned, and they're looking at the best way to build it and how much it will cost.
They plan to make it in an environment-friendly way.
Mumbai plans a ropeway connecting Aarey Metro Station to Film City, potentially extending to Sanjay Gandhi National Park.
The project aims to enhance last-mile connectivity to a busy area with limited public transport.
The ropeway's route is estimated at 2-3 km, depending on final alignment.
It's expected to transport around 2,000-3,000 passengers per hour in each direction.
The project is in the planning phase; budget and timeline are not yet finalized.
