The Wadala-Thane-Kasarvadawli metro line will help solve commuting woes for Mumbaikars when it is completed, but its ongoing construction on the arterial LBS Marg is giving a nightmare to students of St. Xavier's School. The footpaths are in a bad shape and there is a traffic jam in front of the school in the morning and evening peak hours, forcing students and parents to walk on the road.

The arterial LBS Marg connects Sion to Thane and is used by thousands of vehicles on a daily basis. The width of this road has reduced as barricades have been installed for the construction of the metro.
