Now Mumbai To Nagpur Within Four Hours
The proposed 766 km high-speed rail corridor between Mumbai and Nagpur is on track as the National High-Speed Rail Corporation Limited (NHSRCL) is preparing a Detailed Project Report (DPR) for the project.
The ambitious project envisages passengers travelling at over 300 km per hour between Mumbai and Nagpur, linking cities like Shahapur, Igatpuri, Nashik, Mehkar, Malegaon, Pulgaon, Wardha and Khapri.
Officials have told that a series of surveys, including the lidar survey, aerial survey, social impact assessment (SIA) and environmental impact assessment (EIA), has been completed for the Mumbai-Nagpur bullet train project.
“Currently, by road, it takes around 12 hours to reach Nagpur from Mumbai, and the bullet train is expected to reduce the time to four hours. Once the government sanctions the project, the further procedure will be decided,” the official added.
