Haldia Nandigram Water Metro Service To Launch Soon

Residents of Haldia and Nandigram in East Midnapore are set to benefit from a new water metro service operating on the Haldi River. The modern electric vessel has already arrived at the Haldia jetty, and the service will begin once the formal inauguration is completed.

Details of the New Water Metro Service

According to administrative sources, the official opening of the water metro is scheduled to take place within the next few days. This new service will make travel between Haldia and Nandigram faster, safer, and more convenient for daily commuters. The vessel is fully air-conditioned and features advanced safety measures, including CCTV surveillance. Because it runs on electric technology, the water metro offers a pollution-free and comfortable travel experience for all passengers.

Route and Impact on Local Connectivity

The planned route for the service connects the Haldia jetty ghat to the Nandigram ghat via the Mata River. Once the operations start, thousands of passengers are expected to use this water transport daily. This development is reported by Hindusthan Samachar as a significant improvement in regional river connectivity. Officials anticipate that the new water route will also provide a boost to local tourism by making travel between the two areas more accessible.
