  • Ofcourse, it is the most busiest railway station after dadar station in Mumbai City. Also as per the current pace of the commercial development at Andheri (East), there is no doubt that it will over take the leading position. But, the main worry part is that railway authority is not ready to see that and we have not seen any infrastructure development at Andheri station. The passage to move in and out of the station is a very tough task. People rub each other to move out os the station and things are realy unsafe for the women, kids and olderly people. For this, the authotrity in railway, BNC and BEST should come out with a plan to make it hastle free path way. Railway could built a bridge connecting the place where buses leavs the passanger to directly the railway bridge. BMC can built some mall where hawkers can shift and leave the railway premises. BEST can develope a proper depot so that all buses leaves from there. BMC makes a proper rikshaw and taxi stand so that people need not run here and there to catch rikshaw. A complete joint effort is required from the representatives (MLAs & MP), railway autority,BMC and BEST to make Andheri station a safe and hastle free station to travel. Time for all the citizens to wake up for their rights!! "Jago citizens Jago"
  • But there is no doubt that a lot has been done over the years. Some years back, they made the wide north FOB though the stairs leading to the platforms could not be made too wide. Also the southern FOB has been recently extended in the east so that we can come right out of the station. We have to thank the authorities for this.
