Mumbai Central station is getting ready for a heavy commute. Integrating suburban and outstation complexes, the railway station is getting a common 10-metre wide foot-over bridge (FOB), which will be completed in a month at a cost of Rs 6 crore. In addition to this, the station is expected to get a further boost in crowd as the underground Mumbai Metro Aqua Line station has also been integrated with the existing station premise.
Mumbai Central is one of the busiest stations catering to local and outstation trains and the older six-metre wide foot over bridge was proving to be too crowded. The future Metro 3 station will further add to the crowds. Hence, the railways came up with a new foot-over bridge, which is wider and longer and integrates platforms in both the local and outstation complex in one go, a senior official said.
