Cycle On, Metro Off: Mumbai’s Metro Lets You Bring Your Bicycle On Board for Free
Ever imagined zipping through Mumbai’s chaos without breaking a sweat or waiting in long traffic jams? Cyclists in the city now have a smart solution that combines pedal power with public transport—bringing bicycles inside the Mumbai Metro, completely free of cost.
Commuters using Metro Lines 2A and 7 can now carry their cycles right into the coach. Specially designed hooks have been fitted inside trains to let passengers safely hang their bicycles during the ride. This isn’t a brand-new move—it’s been quietly available since 2022—but it’s only now catching the public’s eye, sparking conversations and curiosity online.
One commuter reacted with surprise, saying, “This has been around since 2022? Had no idea!” Another added a hint of sarcasm and amusement: “Too fancy a feature for Mumbai!” The feature has also led to growing demand, with voices now calling for it to be introduced on other routes too. “Please bring this to other lines as well!” a user wrote, echoing a sentiment many others share.
