With a number of pilgrim, fashion, health and food landmarks located nearby in addition to corporate and media houses, Lower Parel station sees a diverse demographic of commuters every day.

Padma Thomas, media professional who commutes to the station says, “The roads leading to the station from both the East as well as the West are very crowded with errant bikers and sellers. Getting to the station walking is dangerous as there is no place to walk due to the footpaths being taken over by sellers.”
