Work on the city`s largest rail reconfiguration project in Kalyan, the entry point of Mumbai, has now gained further momentum, with significant preparatory work underway. This includes the construction of drains, clearance of encroachments to build sheds and the awarding of additional work contracts.

A senior Central Railway (CR) official stated, “The contract for earthworks, minor bridges, service building relocation, and track works has been awarded. Furthermore, progress is being made on the drains, boundary wall and earthwork. All these efforts aim to segregate long-distance and suburban local trains.”
