With the demolition of a high wall along the road behind the railway police station, the Bandra railway station now features a 3,500 sqm open space on its west side. On the east side, the Railways plan to connect the existing foot overbridges within the suburban station to Bandra Terminus.

“After the heritage restoration of the station, we moved the barricades further away and stopped autos and other vehicles from approaching the station. This created a pedestrian plaza and a circulating area for commuters,” said Western Railway’s Chief Public Relations Officer Vineet Abhishek.
