In connection with the station improvement work of Kandivali station under MUTP-IIIA being carried out by Mumbai Railway Vikas Corporation (MRVC), Western Railway (WR) has proposed to construct a skywalk on Platform No. 4.
For this, the existing staircase of South end FOB needs to be dismantled. Therefore, the same will remain closed from October 1, 2024. The new skywalk is aimed at increasing passenger accessibility and station amenities.
The Mumbai Railway Development Corporation (MRVC) is spearheading the work, which is expected to bring convenience to passengers and improve overall safety at the station. However, the commencement of demolition work may cause temporary inconvenience to passengers. Inconvenience caused is highly regretted by WR, the Western Railway statement said.
"Western Railway sincerely apologizes to passengers for any disruption this may cause and urges passengers to plan their journeys accordingly. Alternative routes will be advised to minimize impact on passengers' daily journeys," an official said.
