The integration of Ghatkopar railway station with the Metro Blue Line station finally started on Thursday. With the demolition of the ticket booking counter meant for railways, the Blue Line team started to dismantle structures for seamless interconnection. The work is expected to be completed soon.

A massive elevated deck and a foot overbridge are coming up at the south end of the station, and the former will be integrated with the concourse of the Metro station. After nearly seven years of follow-ups by this newspaper, the wide elevated deck on the Mumbai Metro end of Ghatkopar station is taking shape. A Mumbai Railway Vikas Corporation official told mid-day the deck would be ready by mid-April.
