Railway officials said the delay was because a plan to build a foot overbridge earlier had been shelved; they will now construct a subway, expected to be ready in three months, that will be convenient for crossing rail tracks

Mumbra Retibunder, which is considered to be the hotspot for intensive trespassing, leading to injuries and deaths, is finally getting an underpass. The Central Railway has processed a tender worth Rs 82 lakh to build a subway at the location with a completion period of three months.
After completion of the fifth and sixth lines, the speed of trains passing the Retibunder slum colony, located between Mumbra and Kalwa, have increased. The locals have alleged that the instances of deaths and injuries while crossing rail tracks have increased.
