| Work Detail |
The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) is swiftly advancing the construction of the Kalyan to Taloja Metro Line 12, marking significant progress with the commencement of work in Kalyan. Excavation activities have kicked off near the APMC market in Kalyan (West) and multiple locations in Dombivli, laying the groundwork for the installation of Metro pillars.
With an estimated budget of Rs. 5865 crores, the project recently initiated its construction phase in Dombivli. In February, Chief Minister Eknath Shinde inaugurated the project with a groundbreaking ceremony, heralding the beginning of Metro Line 12s development. Following the ceremony, work swiftly commenced, quickly expanding from a single location in Dombivli to include the APMC market road in Kalyan and various other sites in Dombivli.
Spanning a distance of 22 kilometers, the route is set to encompass 19 stations upon completion. Eknath Shinde expressed optimism about the project, stating, "Once this metro line starts, two and a half lakh passengers will benefit from it on a regular basis, and this will also reduce crowding on local trains between Kalyan and Thane." |
