The Central Railway of Mumbai division announced Mega Block on Sunday, December 1, to carry out maintenance work on tracks, overhead, and signalling equipment. During this period, local trains on the Central and Harbour lines will be disrupted for commuters for at least four hours on both lines.
However, there will be no block this Sunday on the Western Line for local trains in the daytime, while a "Jumbo Block" was imposed on the interview nights of November 30 and December 1 for track maintenance work. The block will be four hours on the DOWN Slow line between Marine Lines and Mahim stations from 12.15 am to 4.15 am.

During the block period, all Down Slow line trains will be operated on the Down Fast line between Churchgate and Mahim stations. Hence, these trains will not halt at Mahalaxmi, Lower Parel, Prabhadevi, Matunga Road, and Mahim station due to the non-availability of platforms at Mahalaxmi, Prabhadevi, and Matunga Road and the inadequate length of platforms at Lower Parel and Mahim station.
