The shrine is located outside the Nerul East station.
The shrine is on the side of the footpath and you cannot go inside it, as it is raised to 1 m height just to pray from outside. Besides the shrine there are few stalls like two cigarette stall and a samosa stall. And also there is a flower vendor ahead of the footpath.
There is a pay n park behind which is 4m below from the shrine level on the right hand side with a gap of 3 meters between them. there is vegetation on the sloping side next to parking which was not being used and broken rickshaws were kept there

The people who park their vehicles have to take a long route for the station.
I created a trails as a shortcut through the trees directing the space for movement and a few balconies like midlanders and the endpoint being the shrine.
The midlander also acts as a space for people to setup stalls and then use the space for seating.
In the trail also, there are 2 paths, where 1 is a direct simple path from below the shrine plinth and the other is a longer path for people who want to meander.
Then there is a short ramp to reach the shrine.
The shrine is also divided in different space as one space where people can pray, one for seating and also a balcony to overlook.
There is a big opening in the front, which makes the people waling on the footpath feel connected, where they can pray from outside.
Also there are multiple stairs for entering the shrine, from the footpath and also from the trail.
