Work has begun at Dombivli station on a new bridge, after the remains of the partially demolished previous bridge were removed following a report in mid-day on October 8 (A disaster waiting to happen at Dombivli station).

"Work has begun for foundations of the new bridge that is supposed to take the place of the older one. To speed up the work, the assembly of girders has also begun so that once the foundations and base are ready, the girders could be launched at the earliest without any further delay. We intend to finish the work very soon," Central Railway's Chief Public Relations Officer Shivaji Sutar said.
