6 New railway stations are to be opened soon confirms Central Railway
Soon 6 new suburban Railway stations catering to Mumbai local trains will be opened for the public in one go. These include 5 stations on the new extension of the Uran line and Dighe on the Thane-Vashi corridor. All six are in their final stages of completion.
The vital Belapur-Seawoods-Uran railway project seeks to improve accessibility to the central part of Navi Mumbai from other areas of the region where development has been planned, and this new line will greatly benefit the public and passengers.
The railway project is being done on a cost-sharing basis with the City and Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO) of the Maharashtra government. One-third of the project’s cost is being borne by Railways while CIDCO is taking care of the rest. The new line will be connected to the existing harbour line at two points. One arm will go to Nerul and the other to Belapur. Both these arms will converge at a junction point from Nerul and Belapur and the straight double line continues till Uran.
