The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) is actively working to streamline the approval process of prototype metro train carriages for upcoming metro lines, with the goal of saving time.
Sanjay Mukherjee, the Commissioner of MMRDA, told The Indian Express that the experience gained from the successful operation of two Mumbai Metro lines (Line 2A and Line 7) from Andheri to Dahisar will significantly expedite the approval process for prototype metro train carriages for other upcoming lines. These metro train carriages must meet the standards set by the Research Design and Standards Organisation (RDSO) and the Commissioner of Metro Railway Safety (CMRS).
