Metro cannot replace Mumbai local. But it will complement it and it will bring big change in commuting for mumbaikers. I am living in delhi from 2011 and the amount of metro network that has expanded is phenomenal thank god they didn't bring in stupid monorail. Commuting in delhi is very very easy, thanks to metro.

@@shubham5144 yup, in simple words. Metros are for the main city's inner movements like Delhi and Mumbai. Allows safe fast travel between the cities. RRTS are for metropolitan regions like NCR and MMR. It helps connect outer cities to main cities, e.g., under construction Delhi-Meerut RRTS. And, Bullet Train for main major cities connection, e.g., Mumbai to Pune to Surat to Ahmedabad via under construction Mumbai-Ahmedabad HSRC. Mumbai does need RRTS at some point to make seamless connectivity between Mumbai and MMR. Together, Metro and RRTS can or will take away all the burden from Mumbai Locals will ease, and then there's bullet train for city to city travel. The future of Mumbai traveling is bright, it's just that today sucks.

[@Virtual_Jay]

Metro cannot replace local train, because Mumbai have such a huge population so to reduce congestion, both metro and local services are necessary 👍👍

[@LapisPhilosophorum222]

Develop other cities other than the sole Mumbai to give it a much needed break. Its the only solution.

[@hadhamalnam]

Not just due to population. Regardless of population, urban trains are faster than metros for long distance. For example, if you want to go 20 km from Mira Road to Ville Parle, local trains will take 30 minutes while metro will take about 1 hour because of the stops and slower maximum speed. This is why in Tokyo, they have both urban rail for long distance and metro for shorter distance travel and last mile connectivity.

Mumbai metro is alternate option to reduce passenger load from locals but not as replacement of locals.

No environmentalist is opposing metro itself.

[@rangeetganguly6010]

Give Metro to people beyond Virar, Badlapur to areas like Dahanu, Panvel, Kasara, Karjat and Khopoli if you want to shift the crowd to use Metro entirely. Plus, airport or express train commuters can't carry luggage in Metro, so they will use local trains.

[@hadhamalnam]

Metro is much slower than local trains for long distance. For example Virar to Andheri, with is around 40 km, local trains will take 1 hour, but Metro would take close to 2 hours. This is why in cities with good public transportation like Tokyo, they have urban rail for longer distances but Metro for shorter distances and last mile connectivity.

[@ksh6]

Convert Local-train to RRTS standard where majority of trains will be stopping only in important stations. Thus, for those who want to go longer distance, local train would be faster than metro.

[@dosa2990]

You don't live in Mumbai, do you? 😂 Your recommendation was undertaken in 1985, they are caller "fast trains" of Mumbai, lol

[@ksh6]

@@dosa2990 Lived in Mumbai for 8 out of the last 15 years. Fast trains and slow train concept is not comparable to the metro where the stops are significantly more. Every neigbhourhood has a stop in Metro. That makes travelling average speed really slow. Even the "slow" local train will beat Metro trains in terms of speed due to Metro having too many stops.

[@gameswithtroyYT]

​@@ksh6the slow locals that stop at all stations significantly help Bombay, for example it reduces crowd on other stations if the area the people want to go to is not a major station or important station.

@@jaysiddhapura I know people prefer local and I totally understand them........not everyone can afford........But some can especially during peak hours for long distance travellers

[@rajpawar9343]

You're correct! Even I noticed these same issues in metro that it can't replace locals.

[@pratikshirkar5620]

It cannot replace for Mumbai suburbs, because transit time for metro is slow. If you travel from virar to churchgate or badlapur to cst via metro in future. It will take 3 to 4 hours with multiple changeovers of metro lines. Whereas local train is feasible by just 1.5 hours. Metro is solution for a small distance and crowded city just like Mumbai. Don't worry ridership of local trains won't reduce. Do a proper study and convenience analysis. RRTS can replace the local trains. Which has a higher speed and covers long distance.

And that's how Mumbai was developed. Kafi salo se ye trend chalte aa raha hai aur logo ki life railway station aur local train se judi hai. Same time, metro sabhi ke liye Ghar se ya office se close nahi ho sakti. Hence, Mumbai local will cater most of the people for a long run.

At the very least Mumbai Local trains should have automatic closing doors for safety!

[@rangeetganguly6010]

They have in AC Local trains

[@ChiSa123]

@@rangeetganguly6010 Yes, which is what I think all local trains should be! But some people say there is a so called "cost problem" with AC locals and poor people "can't afford"! Of course I think this is a BS argument! But even if I give them the benefit of the doubt... at the very least we should have local trains with the doors close and people don't hang out of it... also proper windows so that people can't stick their hands out of the train or throw rubbish out of the train on to the tracks!

Once travel from Thane to Dadar at morning time or Dadar to Thane at evening ....you will realise that in next 50 years threre is no any competition to local

Delhi Metro almost puri Delhi ko cover karti hai aur Phase 4 ke baad aur bhi jayada area cover karegi.

Metro can't replace Local, in few years both local and metro will be over burdened.

[@himanshubhojak16]

Metro cant replace locals. Local helps to travel main destinations while metro will help in subordinate destinations. You can say its subordinate to road transport.

[@mukeshdhiman802]

Introducing vande bharat metro is good step for local. Current trains are not in sink with current time.

[@gsander3102]

Local will be less congested it wont harm them. And then we will see better quality Trains when that happens.
