Mumbai Metro Aqualine to provide full mobile coverage

So far, commuters travelling on the Aqualine have faced complete loss of network while travelling in the fully underground Metro. Authorities said that the telecom services will be rolled out in a phased manner. “Leading telecom operators have commenced activation of their networks in a phased manner across the Aqualine. Airtel and Vodafone Idea have successfully switched on their mobile services in Phase 1 of the corridor, covering the section from SEEPZ to BKC. Mobile signal is now available at all stations within this stretch. Vodafone Idea is extending services in Phase 2A up to Acharya Atre Chowk and is targeting coverage up to Cuffe Parade shortly, while Airtel aims to complete its rollout by the end of June,” an official press statement said.
