If you’re tired of the daily congestion and long commutes from Navi Mumbai to Mumbai, here’s some exciting news! Soon, you can skip the traffic and reach Mumbai in 17 minutes, thanks to a new Mumbai water taxi service. Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari recently announced this service during an election rally in Thane. The service will connect Mumbai with the upcoming Navi Mumbai International Airport, offering a fast, hassle-free alternative to road travel.
The upcoming water taxi service promises to revolutionize daily commutes by providing an eco-friendly alternative to conventional road travel. By using Mumbai’s expansive sea routes, it aims to reduce traffic congestion and pollution while offering commuters a quick and efficient way to travel between Mumbai and Navi Mumbai.
Work on the water taxi service is already underway, with a jetty near the upcoming Navi Mumbai International Airport completed to support its operations. The service will feature amphibious seaplanes, capable of landing on both water and land, ensuring seamless connectivity.
The first phase of the water taxi service is slated to launch by March 2025. This aligns with the opening of the Navi Mumbai International Airport. Stay tuned for updates as this exciting project progresses!
