Mumbai: Commuters at Dadar station will face temporary changes as the north-side staircase of the Foot Over Bridge (FOB) on Platform No. 4 is set to be closed for repair work. The closure will be in effect from the intervening night of March 15-16, 2025, until April 30, 2025.
Railway authorities have urged passengers to use alternative FOBs during this period to access the platforms. The repair work aims to enhance passenger safety and improve infrastructure durability.
