The construction of the double discharge platform at Vidyavihar station, crucial for college students and office commuters, is now on a fast track with a goal to finish by this year. This new platform, along with a foot overbridge landing, aims to manage the large crowds swarming the station.

Since its establishment on August 16, 1961, Vidyavihar station has witnessed an average daily footfall of 67,220. To accommodate this influx, the station is undergoing expansion, adding a platform on the opposite side of the current one (Platform 1) to create a double discharge platform for trains heading to Kalyan. The work has been categorised and expedited under the Amrit Bharat station scheme.
