This significant milestone marks Navi Mumbai Metro as the only metro line in Maharashtra to receive all three ISO certifications within its very first year of operations. The certifications were awarded by the British Standards Institution (BSI) through Maha Metro, said the release.

"This achievement underscores CIDCO's dedication to providing world-class metro services while prioritizing quality, sustainability, and safety. It reaffirms CIDCO's leadership in urban development and infrastructure," said Vijay Singhal, Vice Chairman and Managing Director, CIDCO.

With this milestone, CIDCO has taken a decisive step toward modernizing urban mobility and setting a global standard for excellence in metro rail services, said the spokesperson.
Services on the 11-km-long Belapur-Pendhar corridor, phase 1 of the Navi Mumbai Metro project, started on November 17 last year. The corridor connects Belapur CBD, Taloja MIDC and CIDCO's housing complexes in Kharghar.
