Starting from February 4, water taxi services will ply between Gateway of India to Belapur as the Mumbai Port Authority has given its approval to operate the passenger service to Nayantara Shipping Company.
The latest addition by a private operator will carry 200 passengers – 140 on the lower deck and another 60 on the upper or business class deck. In a fortnight, the same catamaran will also be used to ferry office-goers between Gateway of India and Belapur.
