CSMT T1 toilets are clean although inaccessible to non-travellers

In the concluding part of our series on the state of public toilets in the city, mid-day examined the facilities along the four functional Metro lines. While the washrooms were generally well-maintained, there is room for improvement. On Blue Line 1, public toilets are located outside the ticketing area, making them accessible to everyone. However, newer Metro lines have toilets inside the ticketing area, with some exceptions, such as Aqua Line 3 stations built using the NATM tunnelling method. Here, construction limitations necessitated placing utilities outside the ticketing area.

Ghatkopar
The washroom at Ghatkopar station, located just after the entry gate, is one of the most used. Despite a continuous inflow of commuters and visitors, it is well-maintained and adequately staffed.
