The new lifts will be strategically placed to enhance connectivity across the station:
– Platform 1
– Between platforms 2 and 3
– Between platforms 4 and 5
– Near platform 6, adjacent to the Pune Metro Station
While the central foot-over-bridge (FOB) has been temporarily closed due to safety concerns, passengers can utilize the other FOBs, including the one connecting all six platforms, built in 2019.
The addition of these new lifts is expected to significantly improve passenger flow and overall station accessibility, making the railway station more convenient for all.
