Abstract

The suburban railway network in Mumbai plays a crucial role in the daily lives of millions of people. To improve safety and comfort for female commuters, Ladies’ Special Trains have been introduced. This research paper undertakes a comparative analysis of Ladies’ Special Trains and conventional local trains, examining their historical backgrounds, developmental trajectory, and influence on the commuting experiences of women. Through the evaluation of safety, comfort, and convenience, we analyse the advantages and disadvantages of both transportation methods to inform future enhancements. The results of this study make a valuable contribution to the scholarly conversation and provide valuable insights for policymakers, transportation authorities, and civil society organizations involved in promoting inclusive and secure mobility solutions in Mumbai.
