Wadala Road is a station on the Harbour Line of Mumbai's railway network. Wadala is the only station in the whole of Mumbai that connects you to the Western, Central as well as Harbour lines. It is home to one of the oldest treatment center for Leprosy established during British rule, known as Ackworth Leprosy Hospital. Part of the sprawling complex is now given over to an AIDS NGO.
In Wadala (west) there is a large open space called Five Gardens, an area which is known for its greenery. Wadala also has the "Rocket Garden" another park which has now undergone a transformation from its weedy days. Asia's largest Government Colony, the Central Govt Housing Quarters, are in Wadala West.
Wadala (west) remains one of the best residential areas on the whole city, with some of the quietest localities, large parks for both youngsters as well as senior citizens. The roads are completely shaded by huge trees over 150 years old. And the extremely large concentration of educational institutes makes it a hub for students in the day time, while leaving it empty and calm in the night time.
Around 15 minutes away from Wadala Station East, past deserted trucker land, is Flamingo Bay. For the past 12 years, flamingoes have been wintering here. From December to March, thousands of them descend on the mudflats a mile from the shore, to feed on the nutrient-rich marshes. Thankfully, this ethereal sight isn't commercialized, so all you'll see on any weekend are a bunch of nature enthusiasts, keenly gazing out onto the mudflats through their binoculars. The proposed Nhava Sheva bridge will connect the island to the mainland, will see the destruction of their habitat, and will result in the final flight of these beautiful birds.
Wadala enjoys proximity to Dadar, a prominent locality within Bombay. Dadar East lies west of Wadala, Sion (Koliwada) to the immediate north, the sea to the east and Sewri to the south. Of late, Wadala has become an upper middle class residential locality with a large number of residential buildings springing up. Amongst the more prominent residential complexes that have sprung up here are Bhakti park Dosti Acres, Lloyds' Estate and Dosti Estates.
