The Chembur-Wadala-Jacob Circle Monorail corridor was finally thrown open to commuters on Monday, but on the very first day of its operations a garland proved to be its undoing, delaying services for about 45 minutes. Commuters were stranded at the Wadala Monorail station after a wire or a thread used to tie a garland on the railings at the station allegedly got entangled with a train.

The Jacob Circle-bound Monorail suffered the glitch between 12.30 and 1 pm on Monday at the Wadala Monorail station. Passengers had to be asked to alight from the train and wait at the station. The train was immediately taken to the car depot.
