Western Railway (WR) has successfully rebuilt and opened the Wankhede foot overbridge (FOB), ensuring enhanced connectivity and convenience for cricket fans ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 matches at the iconic Wankhede Stadium. The reconstruction of the FOB was completed in just eight months after receiving the necessary funding from the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA).

Western Railway Chief Public Relations Officer Vineet Abhishek said the newly constructed FOB is now operational with two staircases—one on the east side and another on the west side, both facing the northern direction. “This will ensure seamless movement of pedestrians, especially during the upcoming IPL matches. The FOB measuring 48 metres in length and 6.30 metres in width has been rebuilt at a cost of Rs 6.50 crore.
