The Western Railway (WR) has kicked off its much-awaited project of constructing an 8-km Goregaon-Borivli harbour line with an elevated station at Malad. The project is targeted for completion by March 2027.
With the fifth and sixth lines now in the works between Kandivli and Borivli, there is now no space left on either side of the WR lines. The ongoing project will add two more lines (one corridor), which will be an extension of the existing harbour line.
