With the focus shifting towards starting more trains from the suburbs instead of Mumbai Central and with additional Vande Bharat and Amrit Bharat trains expected, the Western Railway has initiated expansion plans at Bandra Terminus. These plans aim to accommodate extra maintenance facilities, which could support up to nine new trains.

The work on upgrading three new pit lines is 70 per cent complete and is expected to be finished by 2025. Pit lines are specialised maintenance tracks with an open dumping pit along the base of the railway track. These pits allow for cleaning and maintenance of trains from underneath, as well as inspection and repair of coach base parts in preparation for their next journey.
