| Platform Extension | Platforms 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 will be extended for 24-26 coach trains |
| Yard Work | Comprehensive yard remodeling to improve train flow |
| Entry/Exit | A third entry/exit point will be developed towards RB Mill Road |

When will the work be completed?
Work on platforms 11 and 12 started in April 2026 and is expected to finish within two months. The overall yard remodeling is a complex task that is already partially underway. Officials expect the main project to be completed by the end of 2026, while some components may extend until March 2027.
To further reduce the load on the main station, the railways are also redeveloping Hadapsar and Khadki stations. This integrated approach will ensure smoother travel for passengers across the city.
