Central Railway (CR) on Sunday said it will provide exclusive 115-sqm non-motorised environment-friendly transport hubs, the first of which will come outside Kurla station on its western side. The e-bikes will serve commuters between the business and student district of Bandra, Kurla and BKC. It is the first time that the Indian Railways is providing docking hubs for e-bike docking outside stations.

The initiative is a part of the project inaugurated by Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray where the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) in February signed a deal with an e-bike sharing platform to start a pilot scheme in BKC (Bandra Kurla Complex).
