The crowd bubble at Dadar station on Central Railway (CR) is finally bursting. The double-discharge facility for fast trains, the removal of stalls that were creating a hindrance for commuters and the division of crowds have started to bear fruit. The double-discharge platform 10/11 is now ready and passengers have started using it, reducing congestion at the station.
