The scenario in Kalyan is equally grim, with passengers struggling to navigate the area outside Platform 1 due to ongoing construction work. The combination of water-logging and train cancellations towards CSMT has further complicated matters. Travelers have expressed disappointment over the incomplete state of construction at the station, which has exacerbated the monsoon-related difficulties.

Adding to the commuters' woes, floodwaters have inundated railway tracks at multiple locations along the suburban line, including Bhandup, Kanjurmarg, and Kurla. This submersion has caused additional disruptions to train services, compounding the challenges faced by Mumbai's residents during this heavy monsoon spell.
