Encroachments eliminated from within and outside Siddhivinayak temple, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) plans to run a special bus ferry from Dadar station to the iconic religious site, and vice versa, solely for devotees. BMC officials have stated that in the coming months, if any devotee comes from Dadar station to Siddhivinayak, they will not face any trouble with regard to travelling, obtaining prasad thalis, seating arrangements and toilet facilities.

The BMC conducted a joint meeting with the BEST chairman, Siddhivinayak temple trust, and Dadar division traffic police to chalk out a new plan, according to which the civic body will beautify the area outside and inside the temple, install two big gates at the front and rear named Riddhi Siddhi and run a bus service.
