Western Railways (WR) has successfully undertaken various infrastructural upgradation and augmentation works for the convenience of passengers. In continuation to this, a new Skywalk has been commissioned at Andheri station, for the convenience of passengers.
According to an official statement released by Sumit Thakur, Chief Public Relations Officer of WR, the new Skywalk at Andheri is 6 metre wide and 98 metre long and has been commissioned on August 1, 2022. It connects the new South FOB to the old South FOB. This Sky walk will help in decongestion of the crowd over old South FOB for movement from west side to east side and vice-versa by providing additional walk way. The total cost of the Skywalk is approx. INR 4.50 crores.
With this, total eight FOBs and Skywalks have been commissioned in the Mumbai suburban section of Western Railway in the financial year 2022 – 23, taking the total to 141. Further, five more FOBs at Dadar, Khar, Naigaon, Vasai Road and Nallasopara stations are targeted to be completed by the end of this financial year.
Western Railway urges its valued customers to care for their precious life and not to trespass railway tracks. Always use FOB, subways, escalators and lifts to crossover and change platforms.
