Engineering major Larsen & Toubro and Malaysia's Scomi Group are expected to commission the first phase of Mumbai Monorail, India's first such system, by end of this year.
The Rs2,460 crore project, an initiative of the Mumbai Metropolitan Regional Development Authority (MMRDA), is a modern urban transport where cars move on a single beam in an elevated corridor.
The project involves design, construction, installation, testing and commissioning from Wadala and Chembur via Mahul (approximately 9 km) in Phase I and Gadge Maharaj Chowk to Wadala (approximately 11 km) in Phase II.
"Phase I, from Wadala to Chembur, is expected to be completed and commissioned by this year-end. The second phase is expected to be completed by December 2011," L&T's executive vice-president & head-corporate initiatives, Shailendra Roy told reporters here.
