In a bid to further enhance the commuting experience of passengers, the Mumbai Railway Vikas Corporation (MRVC) has made significant strides in modernizing suburban railway stations with the installation of lifts and escalators.

Up until 2023, MRVC had successfully commissioned 15 elevators and 16 escalators across various suburban stations in Mumbai. In 2024 alone, the corporation has installed 4 new lifts and 9 escalators, continuing its commitment to making travel safer and more accessible for passengers. Over the next few years, MRVC has ambitious plans to add 119 more lifts and 183 escalators by 2027, resulting in a total of 138 lifts and 208 escalators at suburban stations throughout the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR).
