Elevated Platforms

Central Railway (CR) is planning to elevate both the Harbour Line platforms to make way for the proposed fifth and sixth railway line between Kurla and Parel on the Central Line. Platforms 7 and 8 will be elevated 8-9m above ground level. An elevated deck, with a ticket booking counter, will be attached to the platforms. The elevated platforms will be connected to Harbour Line by a 1.5 km elevated rail line between Chunnabhati and Tilak Nagar, similar to the one between Sandhurst Road and Cotton Green stations.[1][2]
