Central Railway (CR) has fixed critical six waterlogging-prone locations on the suburban railway network, built a micro tunnel near Thane, and has set up boulder nets, sumps, and tunnel portals for the ghat and mountain sections.

“Central Railway has undertaken extensive preparations to ensure safe, reliable, and uninterrupted train operations during the monsoon season. A comprehensive action plan focusing on prevention of waterlogging, augmentation of drainage infrastructure, protection of vulnerable locations, and strengthening of ghat sections has been implemented to tackle the challenging task of operating trains during monsoon season,” CR Chief Spokesperson Dr Swapnil Nila said.
