With a view to provide complete salon services to the travelling passengers, especially to the office-goers on the move, Western Railway (WR) has come up with a novel concept of Salon Services at railway stations.
In this direction, WR has awarded the contract for operating Unisex Salon Services at Churchgate and Andheri stations.
According to an official statement released by Sumit Thakur, Chief Public Relations Officer of Western Railways, the Unisex Salon Services have been awarded through e-auction leasing module under Non Fare Revenue (NFR). Besides, extending value added services to the rail users, the contracts will also be an add-on to the revenue coffers of Railways. This unique concept of Salon services will be benefitted to the daily office goers. Both the contracts have been awarded for a period of three years from April 2023 to April 2026.
