Kalyan-Dombivli to get pod taxi; survey soon
“Soon, the residents of Kalyan-Dombivli will be able to reach their homes directly by taking pod taxis after alighting from trains, buses,” Shinde said.
THANE: Kalyan-Dombivli is set to join Mumbai and Thane in getting pod taxi services, with a feasibility survey for the project expected to begin soon, Kalyan MP Shrikant Shinde announced on Wednesday.

“Soon, the residents of Kalyan-Dombivli will be able to reach their homes directly by taking pod taxis after alighting from trains, buses,” Shinde said.
The announcement has drawn criticism from opposition leaders, who argue that authorities should first address pressing transport issues such as overcrowded and delayed local train services and the lack of an effective public transport system. They alleged that new infrastructure announcements are being prioritised over long-pending civic concerns.
