The commuters were immediately evacuated at Wadala depot from the train, which halted after facing some technical issues. The fare of the tickets was refunded to each passenger travelling on the train.
After the passengers were evacuated, the monorail was being transported to the depot but it ceased to move mid-way. Another train was then used to push the monorail further. Since other trains could not use the same alignment, services were shut for about an hour.
The second phase of the Chembur-Wadala-Jacob Circle monorail was flagged off in March 2019.
