I'm so confused, this question about the Mumbai Metro is showing up in my pregnancy group. I think there's some mistake. Anyway, I hope someone can still help with my actual pregnancy queries!
Oh God, this is totally off-topic but honestly, with a newborn, traveling in Mumbai is such a nightmare! We had local trains for decades, so the government probably didn't think about it earlier. Now, I only prefer the AC metro or cabs because taking a baby in a local is impossible.
Look, Mumbai always had local trains keeping the city running, so the administration got too comfortable. But now, with all this construction traffic, it's so stressful for pregnant ladies. Be very careful if you're traveling, and try to avoid bumpy auto rides.
I used to panic so much about traveling to work during my first trimester due to the bad roads and delayed metro. It's because Mumbai is so crowded and acquiring land is a huge mess. But don't worry, once you find your comfort zone, commuting becomes manageable.
Haha, what a random question for this group! Honestly, because of the ongoing metro construction, my walking routes got so dusty that my doctor strictly told me to walk indoors or do light yoga at home instead. Hope they finish it soon so we can get some clean air!
It's true that everything in Mumbai takes its own sweet time, just like some of our long fertility journeys. I think the delays happened because of political hurdles and planning issues. But please don't let this travel stress affect your peace of mind, dear.
