RoPax Ferries To Make Journeys Shorter For Mumbai Residents | Read

Alibaug in the hinterland is a five-hour drive from the island city of Mumbai or an hour's trip by ferry service that shuts down during the monsoon due to rough seas. Ten thousand people travel between Mandwa in Raigad district and Mumbai every day, and the number triples during holidays and long weekends. Now, much to the relief of daily commuters and holiday-goers travelling to Mandwa and other parts of Alibaug, a new mode of transport - the M2M ferry service - is all set to launch in March from Ferry Wharf Mumbai to Mandwa jetty in Raigad district.
