Ten days after mid-day highlighted the gap between the platform and train at Sandhurst Road station, Central Railway officials have begun work on raising the height of platform no. 1 at its sharp curve. Officials said the existing height of 840 mm will be raised to 900 mm to fill the gap, and this will be done by January.

Officials said the station had a peculiar curve and the height was frequently raised during regular maintenance and due to flooding issues.
