The Western Railway (WR) has identified and fixed new flooding spots along stretches of its Mumbai suburban rail network at Vasai, Dadar, Dharavi, and Matunga to Mumbai Central, where there had been instances of waterlogging in 2025. While at Vasai, the problem has been attributed to unplanned construction, at Matunga, the problem was due to blockages and delayed permissions to get the drains cleaned up.
