Mumbai Metro Lines 2A and 7 Hit by Evening Snag as Services Resume After Delays

Officials attributed the outage to a signalling glitch, with trains moving back toward the normal weekend schedule.

Overview

  • A signalling fault disrupted operations on Lines 2A and 7 shortly after 6 pm, causing trains to halt or crawl and leaving passengers stranded.
  • Andheri West saw the worst crowding, with commuters also reporting prolonged stops at Oshiwara, Mogra and Kandivali West, plus delays near Gundavali.
  • MMMOCL initially described the disruption as a minor problem before updating posts to a temporary technical issue affecting both corridors.
  • Passengers complained of poor communication and few platform updates, while in‑coach screens displayed a generic apology for short delays.
  • The operator later announced the issue had been resolved and said services were being restored to the normal weekend timetable, with some recovery‑phase slow running.
