Guwahati Water Metro Project

planned

The Guwahati Water Metro project aims to establish a high-frequency public water transport network in Guwahati, linking Kamrup Metropolitan district with nearby riverine and peri-urban areas. The project includes feasibility studies involving hydrological surveys, navigability assessments, and evaluations of passenger demand and safety. It is designed as a joint initiative between the Centre, Assam government, and private partners, with funding from central and state allocations, multilateral agencies, and private investment. The project seeks to provide a low-carbon urban mobility solution and is expected to have a pilot corridor operational within 24-36 months after approvals.
