Following the river inspection, the Mayor and Commissioner visited the SATIS (Station Area Traffic Improvement Scheme) Project near Kalyan Railway Station, where they reviewed ongoing issues related to traffic congestion, pedestrian movement and unauthorised hawkers.

The inspection focused on daily traffic bottlenecks that continue to inconvenience thousands of commuters using one of the region's busiest railway stations. Officials assessed key choke points and discussed measures to streamline vehicular movement and enhance pedestrian safety.
