Transport facilities

The local suburban railway network along the Western and Central corridors together with the 'BEST' buses provide commuters with an efficient transportation network. Trains leave every few minutes from stations in both directions from 4.30 am to 1.30 am although the frequency is less in the night and in the early morning. Chauffeur driven cars are available for hire. Mumbai's yellow and black taxis are a convenient way to travel around the city. A tariff card converting the meter reading into rupees fixes payment. Auto-rickshaws allow for easy travel within the city. Auto-rickshaws are also metered but are only confined to the outer limits of the city, around the northern suburbs.
