MYSTERIOUS: Water metro achieves milestone ferries 20 lakh commuters - What They Never Told You

Kochi Water Metro ferries achieved a milestone on April 28 (Sunday) by ferrying a total of 20 lakh commuters ever since the project was commissioned in April 25 last year.

The earlier milestone was achieved on October 16, 2023, by which time a total of 10 lakh commuters had travelled in the ferries, around six months since the commissioning. A total of 14 electric-hybrid ferries are in operation now, on five routes, according to a release.

They began services on the High Court-Vypeen and Vyttila-Kakkanad routes, followed by the High Court-Bolgatty-South Chittoor, South Chittoor-Eloor-Cheranalloor and High Court-Fort Kochi corridors.
