Background/ preparatory work for extension of Harbour line services from Andheri to Goregaon is in progress.
Capacity augmentation of Mumbai Suburban is extremely difficult which costs inordinately high with restpect to time & money due to:
- Ultimate scarcity & extremely high cost of land
- Ultimate running traffic on tracks (a train every 3-4 Minute on a track)

Negligible maintenance/block time as Suburban services operate almost through out the day hardly leaving a few early morning hours
- Densely populated locality with high rise buildings make a even a very small piece land acquisition almost an impossible task
- Due to above, removal or shifting of infringements like small building, signalling panels etc become extremely difficult & time taking.
It would be interesting to see the difference if a person like Mr. E Sreedharan is made in-charge of all the Mumbai Projects.
